If you wanted to add more protein to this recipe, you can add baked tofu. To bake the tofu, I cut it into cubes and bake in the oven at 350.  It usually cooks in 30-35 minutes.

This recipe would also be great served over wild rice or quinoa.  This helps also stretch the meal out longer.

This dish was inspired by my Peanut Noodle Stir Fry.

Instructions

  1. In a large pan, throw the cabbage, peppers, carrots and oil and cook on medium covered until some of the cabbage cooks down. It will seem like a lot, but I promise it will cook down a bit.
  2. Stir the vegetables frequently.
  3. While the veggies are cooking, in a large mixing cup, add the peanut butter, soy sauce and orange juice.
  4. Once the veggies have softened a bit, add the sauce and cook a bit longer until everything is combined.

  3. Got to this by Googling "cabbage stirfry and peanuts". What a great combo this was! I used the cabbage and the other vegs that were on hand (carrot, brocolli and some onion), switched out the sauce a little (didn't have orange juice so used some Mango/lemonade drink, and added some sweet chili sauce) and it resulted with a very nice and quick meal. Kudos! I LIKE this kinda cooking.

  5. I had a bag of cole-slaw mix (basically, just shredded cabbage, carrots, et) that needed to be used, and this recipe saved the day! Even better when the veggies are already shredded :) Thanks for another winning recipe, Melissa!
