    This Super Simple Stir Fry takes only minutes to make and can really up the veggie quotient in your meal.  This is your recipe if you want something simple to accompany  a meal where the other dishes had bold flavours of their own.

    [ultimate-recipe-jump text="Take Me to the Recipe!"]

    I didn't want the vegetables to compete with the flavours of the Ginger Chicken en Papillote and Cinnamon Fried Rice  so I kept it really simple.... really, really  simple....

    I used broccoli, celery and red pepper  because I wanted the red and green colours and the crispiness of the celery.  You can use whatever you might like to add carrots, onions, snow peas, water chestnuts.

    Simple Stir Fry

    You can get creative if you want more flavour. Add a teaspoon of soy sauce, oyster sauce or a splash of any commercial stir fry sauce.

    I stir fried them quickly in just some hot toasted sesame oil.  A hint of Asian but very subtle.

    Good For You!

    This recipe is perfect if you are serving other Asian or Oriental dishes, that may have high fat contents or breading.

    With 1 Tablespoon of oil and ¼ cup of almonds  in the entire dish that is about 6.3 grams per serving.

    There is also no sodium added as the recipe is written.  Another bonus if you have salty fish sauce or soy sauce in other dishes.

    You could switch out the almonds for crispy water chestnuts and reduce the fat per serving to 3.3 grams without sacrificing the crunch.
