Savory Beef & Vegetable Skillet with Soy-Milk Glaze

There’s nothing more satisfying than a hot skillet filled with tender beef, crisp vegetables, and a luscious glaze that ties everything together. This recipe brings a new twist to the table: instead of heavy cream, we use soy milk to create a silky, savory glaze that’s light, dairy-free, and surprisingly rich.

Perfect for a weeknight dinner or a family gathering, this one-pan dish balances protein, fiber, and flavor in a way that keeps everyone coming back for seconds.
