Stir fry has always been my all around healthy meal choice. It's easy to prepare and cooks quickly, making dinners short and sweet so you can get on with your life. But I could only make it once or twice a month because of the excessive fats I used when cooking.
But now I've created a healthy stir fry you can eat a couple times a week if you want. And looking to eat healthier, I turned toward an all vegetable stir fry mix of fresh ingredients. With a little research, I chose all high antioxidant vegetables to create this great tasting recipe.
