This stir fry is a bit sweet, a bit salty, and a bit spicy....Oh, yes, and let's not forget SIMPLE! I was in the mood for a good stir fry, but didn't want to put a lot of thought into it... so I opened the fridge and came up with this idea. Now these are ingredients I always have on hand...this may not be the case for you...so go ahead and change it up.. use what inspires you when you open up your fridge!

So pretty and colorful! You know I love a good stir fry :) Great veggie combo, great flavors. I wish I had some now for breakfast!!
Next time try the velveting method, I promise you'll never go back to plain stir fry :)
I'm a huge fan of chicken stirfry. My kids all have memories of me standing in the kitchen, making a stirfry with 'All Things Considered' on the radio. This recipe sounds delicious. :-)
Jenn, this is kind of stir-fry I usually see them served in Chinese restaurants....I love it.
Yep, that stuff you find in the fridge will often do the trick all by itself. Looks marvelous.
I love a good stir fry...yours looks fantastic. I love making meals out of food I already have the in the refrigerator.
Oh, that looks SO good! And such gorgeous colors!!!
Sometimes these "clean out the fridge" recipes end up being the best.
