This Avocado Steak Stir-Fry Is Your New Go-To Dinner

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at UIUC chapter.

There are few dishes I have ever made that did not benefit from the addition of avocado. This dish is no exception and is by far one of my favorite changing of the season dinners with a refreshing take on steak. The healthy heap of basil is inspired by pesto sauce. Mixed with lemon, it leaves a refreshing zing to the avocado’s creaminess.

My roommates asked for seconds… and thirds… I’m betting yours will, too.
