stir-fry vegetables with rice and fish
I had a couple of tilapia fillets in the freezer and found some vegies in the frig. I love cooking stir-fry because you can make your own sauces and whatever fresh vegies you have in the frig. This is a great summer stir-fry because it is light. My roommate loved it!
