There is something so satisfying about a quick stir fry when you need a healthy meal in a hurry. This recipe uses a colorful mix of broccoli, carrots, and peppers to create a dish that is as beautiful as it is delicious.

I love keeping this recipe simple, but it is very easy to customize based on what you have in your fridge. If you want to make it a hearty dinner, serve the vegetables over a bowl of steamed jasmine rice with your favorite protein on the side.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. You can easily add extra protein like tofu, chicken, or shrimp to make this a more filling meal.
