Whenever I make Beef Jerky from an ‘eye of the round’ roast, there are invariably lots of end bits left over (OK, I always make sure there are leftover bits…). So on days that I make beef jerky, we have some kind of beefy bits meal. Yesterday it happened to be paleo sesame mango beef and vegetable stir fry. I had these awesome Aldolfo Mangoes from the Asian market and some veggie remnants in the crisper.

Normally I would use some fresh ginger and Thai basil leaves, but seeing as I didn’t have any on hand, I substituted with cilantro, extra garlic and green onions. The beauty of making a stir fry is that you can use whatever you damn well please, and it always turns out great.
