Notes
Invent Your Recipe:Having a bottle of stir fry sauce in the house if something I have done for a while. It is a quick way to jazz up a dish with sweet flavor. If you do not have stir fry sauce in the house you can use some soy sauce and honey for a sweet sauce.Many vegetables would work in this dish as a replacement for the broccoli. I have used green beans, brussels sprouts, cabbage, asparagus, and peppers and onions in this dish one time or another. Let you imagination lead you toward your version of this recipe.
