Cabbage Peanut Stir Fry. Stir fries are a great way to use up an extra vegetables you have in the fridge. That is exactly what I was doing when I came up with this stir fry recipe.
Sometimes you really don’t even need a recipe. Just throw a bunch of stuff together and viola! Instant meal.
Often times with something delicious and easy. That was the case with this healthy stir stir fry recipe. This recipe will become a staple in our meal rotation.
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.
