Ingredients
  

  • Zesty Stir-Fry Sauce
  • 3 tbsp (45 ml) orange juice
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) water
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) maple syrup
  • 1 tsp (3 g / 0.11 oz) powdered ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Vibrant Veggies
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) neutral oil, like avocado or canola
  • 1 bunch broccoli, chopped into bite-sized florets
  • 1 medium carrot, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup (50 g / 1.76 oz) sliced mushrooms
  • 1 cup (90 g / 3.17 oz) chopped cabbage
  • 1/2 cup (75 g / 2.65 oz) snap peas, chopped or left whole
  • for the Perfect Stir-Fry
  • Have all your vegetables chopped and your sauce mixed before you start cooking. The stir-fry process is very fast, so preparation is key.
  • For a heartier meal, add a block of pressed and cubed extra-firm tofu or a can of drained chickpeas along with the broccoli and carrots.
  • Ensure your pan is properly hot before adding the vegetables. This gives them a delicious sear and prevents them from becoming soggy.
  • Feel free to swap the vegetables based on what you have on hand. Bell peppers, bok choy, or zucchini would all be excellent additions.
