This is a great way to put a new twist on the roast we eat so often. I was pleasantly surprised to not only find this recipe but to also find how much I like it!
Frugal Tips for Asian Beef with Mandarin Oranges
I usually only buy roast if I can purchase it during a buy one get one sale. This makes the roast so much cheaper! It also makes enough for leftovers so you may be able to get two meals out of it depending on the size of your family.
*All of my dinner recipes can be used with dairy or made into dairy free recipe versions. I have a milk allergy while my husband does not so I often try to make recipes in which substitions can be made either way. My dinner recipes are also made to be as frugal as possible.

I really wanna express gratitude to the blogger very much not only for this post but also for his all foregoing efforts.
Asian cooking in general tends to be pretty frugal. We cook lots of Chinese and Indian food at our house. The meals taste great and really don’t cost much at all, which is great as my 3 teenagers seem to have hollow legs and eat huge portions. Thanks for sharing the recipe
