Stir Fry is a great (and tasty) way to eat a serving or more of vegetables. You can use vegetables of your choosing to make the dish your own! Serve it over brown rice for added fiber, nutrients, and protein. All you need is some vegetables, rice, a little toasted sesame oil, and some low-sodium soy sauce. Sesame oil can be found in most stores now days in the section with oil. I picked mine up for about $3. It is more expensive per ounce but you only need a little bit.
If you would like to add meat, chicken breast would be great in this. Just cut up the chicken into bite size pieces and brown it prior to cooking the veggies. Bam- Homemade Chinese take out!!
