Beef Stir Fry

I found this in my mom's recipe binder when I was looking for stuff before I left for Miami.  Not sure where it came from though.  After I made it I thought about adding some snow peas - it needed some green.  Also, one of my new years resolutions was to eat more vegetables, so I am sure the up coming recipes will be including ways to add more vegetables.

1/2 cup soy sauce
2 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp finely chopped garlic
1 lb sirloin top, cut into pieces
3-4 medium carrots, cut into pieces
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
1 large red onion, cut into pieces

1) In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, sugar, black pepper, and garlic.  Add meat and set aside for 15 minutes.
2) Transfer mixture to a pan.  Brown meat.
3) Once meat is mostly cooked add the vegetables.
4) Serve with brown rice.

Makes 7 servings.  Total cost: $6.15, so $0.88 per serving.
