I’m not gonna lie, going Gluten-Free was DIFFICULT for me. I could not believe how many foods (and other products) contained gluten. I missed bread…and ice cream…and crackers…and Chinese Food!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, there are plenty of gluten-free products and foods available now. With a little experimenting in the kitchen, it’s easy to find a gluten-free alternative for my favorite dishes – like this Beef & Broccoli Lo Mein!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s what you’ll need for this recipe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steak\/Beef<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

For this recipe, you need about 8 ounces of flank steak that is sliced against the grain. Or, you can be lazy like me and buy this sliced beef sirloin at Costco – it is delicious! This beef comes in two packages and I just use one for this Lo Mein (I also use all of the juices in the package).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seasonings & Sauces<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

For this recipe, you can use gluten-free soy sauce or liquid\/coconut aminos (I honestly like the liquid aminos better). You can find gluten-free soy sauce at just about any grocery store. It can be a little bit harder to find the coconut aminos\/liquid aminos, but I have found them at specialty stores and Whole Foods. You can also purchase this on Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also found some gluten-free Hoisin sauce at Whole Foods, but when I got home, I noticed that the ingredients included Caramel coloring (which I am also allergic to). Artificial colors contain traces of gluten and a few are actually carcinogens so I completely avoid them. So… I made my own Hoisin Sauce. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
