I never thought I would ever be THAT Mum! You know the Mum I’m talking about...the one who cries when she sends off her kids to school. The Mum who spends all day (and night) with her little darlings and never complains.

Laura’s Tasty Beef Stir-Fry

I love a good stir fry. It’s easy, quick and can be jam packed with goodness! I like to sneak in a few extra ingredients my picky children (and husband) normally avoid.
