Ingredients

• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 whole red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 whole yellow bell pepper, sliced
• 1 whole carrot, julienned
• 1 whole zucchini, sliced into half-moons
• 1 cup snap peas
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

1. Begin by preparing all the vegetables: wash and chop the broccoli, bell peppers, carrot, zucchini, and snap peas.
2. In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for about 30 seconds or until fragrant.
4. Add the broccoli florets and julienned carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.
5. Next, add the sliced red and yellow bell peppers, zucchini, and snap peas. Continue to stir-fry for another 4-5 minutes until all vegetables are vibrant and just tender but still crisp.
6. Pour in the soy sauce (or tamari) and sesame oil, tossing the vegetables to coat them evenly. Stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes.
7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Remove from heat and sprinkle with sesame seeds for added crunch and flavor.
