Gorgeous stir fry! As colorful as Christmas ~

Vegetable Stir Fry

Some winter foods are so delicious and comforting, nice and hearty for a cold snowy night.    Here is one that is so gorgeous and yummy, but also low in fat and calories.

It's nothing revolutionary, but it does have tons of flavor and a bit of a kick too!

1 red pepper thinly sliced
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 cup of mung bean sprouts
1 cup of snow peas
1 small zucchini, diced
1/2 - 1 jalepeno pepper, minced (optional)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 inch piece of ginger, peeled and minced
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 Tablespoon of kosher salt
1 teaspoon ketchup
1 teaspoon siracha or other hot sauce
1 teaspoon of soy sauce


In a large skillet or wok, heat oil on medium/high heat.  Add onion and red pepper, stir often and cook for 2 minutes.  Add snow peas and zucchini, jalapeno, cook for 2 more minutes.  Remove from heat  Add bean sprouts, ginger and garlic.  Stir quickly and cook for 1 minute longer.  Remove from heat, add ketchup and siracha, stir well.  Remove from heat.  Do not cover, you want your vegetables to have a crunch. 

Serving suggestion, add 1/2 cup of cooked meat or fish and either 1/2 cup of cooked rice or pasta.  Or for a complete vegetarian meal, serve on a pretty platter.  Voila, a beautiful and vibrant meal that will brighten up any table.

A pure taste of the rainbow ~
