Slow Cooker Beef and Broccoli

Written by on in Dinner

This is the perfect prep-ahead meal to have dinner on the table when you get home from work. Marinate your beef the night before. Dump in the slow cooker, and beef is done when you get home! The flavor is just like beef and broccoli from your Chinese take-out restaurant.
