After we arrived in New Zealand, we ate so much beef that I am sure at least 5 cows had to die. Each. Within 6 month. Just kidding… But seriously. We went from hardly ever eating red meat (except in Spaghetti Bolognese) to ‘What’s for dinner? Beef, of course.’ within a week.

It just tasted so different to what we were used to. And was incredibly delicious. There was nothing better than a good steak from the BBQ.

Well, red meat is not quite what is good for you. It is not bad either. But eating it every day was certainly not recommended in my little nutrition bible.

So we have reduced the amount of cows we eat dramatically. And unintentionally Sunday has become our Beef Day. Last week I made this delicious ginger teriyaki beef with rice – yum. I would like to share it with you. Try it. I am sure you will love it.
