(note:  this recipe was a hit with husband!  Will make it again.

I didn't have sriracha, so I subbed hot pepper oil, didn't have white vinegar so subbed apple cider vingar.  This recipe really lends itself well to substitutions...so enjoy!

next time, I'm making double the beef to freeze half, then also freezing the "sauce" so all I'll have to do is thaw, stir fry the slaw, then add the warm beef...quick and easy!)
