Do you ever find yourself in a vegetable rut? I do.  We gravitate toward salads, roasted veggies, smoothies and raw veggies with dips.  I’ve been wanting to make more stir fries so when I saw this easy recipe on Produce for Better Health, it was a no brainer.

This turned out great. The broccoli is really crisp so if you want it softer, just steam it ahead of time or keep it covered for longer.  I know my kids prefer crisp over soggy.

What is your favorite way to make veggies?
