RECIPE TIP
You can omit almonds and use a sprinkle of sesame seeds instead if desired.
If you have fresh veggies you want to use for this stir fry, a great combination would be broccoli, green beans, sweet red pepper and sugar snap peas. You will need 6 cups (1.5 L) total of chopped veggies; cook until tender-crisp before adding the beef.

Bone is a living tissue, that is constantly renewing and repairing itself from everyday wear and tear. However, like many nutrients, calcium is absorbed less effectively as we age. Try out our calcium calculator to see if you are getting enough in your daily diet.
