ashley & michael's go to meal

so this isn't as much a recipe as it is a suggestion of a delicious, healthy, quick, go to meal!

michael & i are crazy about peanut sauce. we love it. it's so tasty & zippy.  so here is our go to, peanuty, delicious stirfry

Peanut Stir Fry

ingredients:

brocoli
snap peas
peppers (our favorites are red, yellow & orange)
onion
* i have also used: black beans, chick peas, corn, cauliflower - just didn't use them today
beef (i buy the "stir fry strips" - it's so much easier & fast!) or you can use chicken
peanut stir fry sauce (i buy the compliments brand from Sobeys)
rice noodles (also from sobeys, in the ethnic aisle)

directions:
stir fry your meat with a small amount of oil over medium-high heat.
chop up vegetables, slice the peppers julienne & then half way so they are bite size
put all the vegetables into the pan with the meat once it's cooked through
at the same time, boil a kettle of water. place the rice noodles in a sieve inside a bowl. once the kettle has boiled, pour the water over the noodles so that it sits in the water in the bowl. it will take about 7 minutes for them to cook all the way through.
pour the sauce over the vegetable/meat combo & stir.
drain the noodles - at this point i use scissors to cut the noodles - as rice noodles can often be sticky if they are too long
mix the noodles into the meat/vegetables & you're ready to eat.
*some nice salted peanuts tossed in would really spice things up!!

enjoy.

not a great picture - but i was too hungry to stop & take an actual picture!!
