I found a basic raw stir fry recipe on the web and Nicole and I tweaked it to make it tastier and 1000 times healthier. Here's our version ...

  • Onion - 1 small

  • Hot peppers - 2 whole
  • Agave Nectar - 2 Tbsp
  • Soy Sauce - 2 Tbsp
  • Curry powder - 2 Tbsp
  • Red Pepper Flakes - 1 Tbsp
  • Olive Oil - 1/2 Tbsp

STEP 1: Naked veggies
  1. Peel Parsnips.

  1. I think your recipe was so delicious. I will try to cook it because I'm sure my family will like this recipe. By the way, do you have a Stir Fried Chicken recipe? I will add that also in my dinner.
