Celery Steak #SundayFunday

This is a wonderful way to take an inexpensive cut of meat, tenderize it in a marinade and stir fry it up with vegetables for a healthy, nutritious, delicious meal that doesn't break the budget.

Join the Sunday Funday Bloggers as we celebrate National Celery Month.......

I am hosting our group this month and, since March is National Celery Month, asked the others to join me in sharing a recipe that features this often overlooked vegetable.

Let's see what they brought to the table......

• Apple Celery Soup from Mayuri’s Jikoni
• Bacon, Celery, & Pecan Stuffed Celery from Amy’s Cooking Adventures
• Celery and Kale Paratha from Cook with Renu
• Celery Steak from A Day in the Life on the Farm
• Gin and Celery Tonic from Karen’s Kitchen Stories
• Homemade Celery Salt from Food Lust People Love
• Pulled Chicken & Celery Sandwiches  by Sneha's Recipe
• Slow-Roasted Celery from Culinary Adventures with Camilla
• Stir-Fried Shrimp with Chinese Celery from Palatable Pastime

Eons ago, when I was a young wife and mother in the 1970's, money was very scarce in our household.  We had bought our first house at 19% interest rate!!!!   Can you imagine that?  And that was going through the FHA that was helping first time homeowners.  Crazy!!

I learned during that time to stretch the grocery budget and this recipe, provided to me by my sister in law, helped immensely.  I would use an inexpensive cut of meat or venison, if my husband had been successful.  This is a great recipe for venison.  

The long marinade flavors and tenderizes whatever kind of red meat you choose to use.  I always marinade my meat overnight but you can put it in the marinade before you leave for the day and it will be plenty flavorful and tender when you are ready to make dinner.

This meal is a regular part of my meal rotation making an appearance several times a year, especially when I am lucky enough to be the recipient of venison gifted to me by one of the many hunters in my life.

It remains no longer because of monetary constraints but because it is so dang good!!!!  

I first shared this meal with you back in 2014, when I was a new blogger.  Take a look at it if you care to have a blast from the past and want to see how I've changed as a blogger.
