This steak has loads of extra flavor, without much fat and just a little sugar added. So splurge on some steak once in a while. Just make sure to keep your portion size small, and add some vegetables and brown rice on the side. It's such a yummy meal with tons of protein! We don't eat steak that often, but when we do we do it right! This is a super yummy meal that we all enjoy! We almost always serve it with brown rice or quinoa and veggies! Kinda like a stir fry with the ginger/soy sauce! Hope you enjoy!
