Paleo Mongolian Beef, Scallion, and Ginger Stir-Fry

I haven't made a stir-fry in quite a while and forgot how simple and quick they are! I ended up doubling this recipe to get 6 meals for the week and made some pretty plain cauliflower rice to go with it (just heated up some cauliflower rice and added garlic powder, salt, and coconut aminos). If you want a more flavorful cauliflower rice to pair with this I suggest making this cauliflower "fried" rice dish. Also, I accidentally bought green chili peppers instead of red, but I am not really sure if that makes a difference. This meal turned out so flavorful and was unexpectedly not spicy at all. If you are looking for a quick and easy stir-fry type meal to make, definitely give this one a try!
