Stir fry has long been one of my favorite meals. Once we started a garden, this meal has gone from good to absolutely amazing! I started experimenting with what I could put in here from the garden and it has been fantastic! Each season there are different vegetables that can be added in to keep the flavor fresh and unique. This way you won’t get tired of the same meal and be able to keep eating it! We discovered last season that we could eat broccoli and cabbage leaves and the addition of this is incredible- you will be shocked! The list can go on and on of the different ingredients from the garden you can use! Broccoli (including the leaves), cabbage leaves, onions, garlic, chives, peas, beans, carrots, cilantro, okra, peppers, spinach, kale… the list can go on and on! Be creative and throw a bunch of items from your garden in!
When I make this recipe, I make a lot extra so we can keep eating on it for the next couple days as well. It is always a big hit even with all the kids! I was actually told the other day by our “super-picky” eater that it was the best she had ever had!
