This is a wonderful dish, so tasty and easy to make… I used to order a very similar dish from a local Chinese restaurant, but now that I know how to prepare it I’ll be making it at home all the time!
You can use whatever fresh veggies you have on hand, frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, broccoli, peppers, corn, etc) or mushrooms… they all work great with this recipe.
