A definite favorite at my house...
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 1/2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons, grated, fresh ginger root, divided
1/4 cup sesame oil, divided
1 head broccoli, cut into florets
1/2 cup snow peas
3 mushrooms sliced thin
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
3/4 cup julienned carrots
2 tablespoons tamari sauce
2 1/2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 tablespoon salt (or less)
Method:
1. In a large bowl, blend cornstarch, garlic, 1 tablespoon ginger, and 2 tablespoons sesame oil until cornstarch is dissolved. Mix broccoli, snow peas, mushrooms, and carrots tossing to lightly coat.
2. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Cook vegetables in oil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Stir in tamari sauce and water. Mix in red pepper, onion, salt and remaining 1 tablespoon ginger. Cook until vegetables are tender but still crisp.
3. Serve over white or brown rice. Use Bragg's Aminos to flavor.

Awesome Veggie Stir Fry
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
• 1 cup carrots
• 1 cup snow peas
• 2 heads of broccoli (about 2 cups)
• 1/2 red pepper (may also add yellow and green)
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/3 cup onion, diced
• 1 pint of mushrooms, sliced (or 2, 4 ounce cans)
• 1 small can water chestnuts, drained
• 1 small can bamboo shoots, drained
• 1 cup bean sprouts
• 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce (I use the SOY VAY brand - Veri Veri Teriyaki)
• 1/3 cup water
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• Bragg's Amino Liquids to taste
Directions:
Turn wok (or large pot) on lowest setting. Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and spread around wok. Add minced garlic, onions and carrot.
While those are cooking, cut up broccoli and snow peas. Add to mixture. Turn up heat add the water. Let steam for a minute. Next, add second tablespoon of oil and mushrooms. Add teriyaki sauce after a few minutes. Finally add water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts and red pepper.
Continue cooking until all vegetables are coated. They should be softened but
not soggy!
This can be served with any rice of your choice or alone if you choose. Spray with Bragg's to taste.
May add tofu (which is delicious when cut up into small chunks), chick peas or any other vegetable or protein source for variety.
