Clare's Slow Cooked Beef Stroganoff

Ingredients

Serves = 6

  • 500g beef stir fry strips (or chuck, sirloin or oyster blade steak cut into strips), visible fat and skin removed
  • 1x 420g tin black beans
  • 1 brown onion
  • 1 medium celery stalk
  • 2 small carrots
  • 2 tsp minced garlic

  • 2 cups beef stock (salt reduced)

  • Pour this into the slow cooker on top of the other ingredients
  • Cook on high for 4 hours
  • 20 minutes before it is done, add in the cornflour and water mixture and stir to combine, cooking until the mixture has thickened
  • Prepare the eggs noodles by cooking in boiling water for 8-10 minutes or until soft
  • Stir the greek yoghurt in to the slow cooker one spoonful at a time and the fresh parsley, and heat through

What is healthy eating?

Eating healthy is making sure you enjoy a wide variety of foods from each of the five major food groups daily, in the amounts recommended. The five major food groups as recommended by the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating are:

  1. vegetables and legumes/bean
  2. fruit
  3. lean meats and poultry, fish, eggs, tofu, nuts and seeds, legumes/beans
  4. grain (cereal) foods, mostly wholegrain and/or high cereal fibre varieties
  5. milk, yoghurt, cheese and/or alternatives, mostly reduced fat.

Foods are grouped together because they provide similar amounts of key nutrients and eating a variety of foods from the list above helps to promote good health and reduce the risk of disease.

How do I improve my diet?

By completing the Healthy Eating Quiz you’ll receive instant personalised feedback and a report on your diet quality to highlight any areas where you can improve your overall eating habits.

Is my diet healthy?

Dietary habits are different between people. Some people choose to follow a particular diet (i.e., Keto diet or vegan diet) while some have to make changes due to certain food restrictions or health conditions. If you want to know if what you usually eat is healthy, then do the Healthy Eating Quiz today to give you the answers in less than 10 minutes.

Why is healthy eating important?

Your HEQ score and personalised feedback report is based on the frequency and variety of healthy core foods you usually eat. This is important because no single food contains all the nutrients we need to stay healthy. Some foods are higher in nutrients than others and people who have a lot of variety in the foods they eat are more likely to be healthy and to stay healthy. In other words, if you can eat a large variety of vegetables as opposed to only 2-3 types of vegetables, the benefits are much greater. This type of diet also helps you to feel better, think better and perform better during your usual daily activities.
