healthy beef and veggie stir-fry
I found this in a light & tasty magazine and have been enjoying for years. The couple who shared it had been losing weight and this was part of their menu. I changed just a few things, by adding garlic and store bought stir fry sauce. You can change it by using chicken, tofu or pork. I love this because you can make it your own and it's always great!
