Ingredients
  

1 cup bell peppers (red, yellow, and green), sliced

1 cup zucchini, sliced into half-moons

1 cup purple cabbage, thinly sliced

1 cup carrots, julienned

1 cup snap peas, trimmed

1 cup mushrooms (shiitake or button), sliced

1 small red onion, thinly sliced

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated

3 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup

1 tablespoon sesame seeds

1 tablespoon fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prep the Veggies: Start by washing and slicing all the vegetables as indicated in the ingredients list. Having them ready to go will make the cooking process smoother and quicker.

    Heat the Oils: In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil and sesame oil over medium-high heat.

      Sauté Aromatics: Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn them.

        Add the Veggies: Add the sliced red onion to the pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes until it becomes translucent. Then, add the bell peppers, zucchini, carrots, and mushrooms. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the vegetables to become tender yet still crisp.

          Incorporate Cabbage and Snap Peas: Next, toss in the purple cabbage and snap peas, and continue to stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes. The vibrant colors should mix beautifully, creating an appealing sight.

            Flavor the Stir-Fry: Drizzle the soy sauce and honey (or maple syrup) over the veggies and toss everything together until well-coated. Cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the sauce to blend with the vegetables. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

              Serve: Once everything is well mixed and cooked to your preference, remove from heat. Sprinkle sesame seeds and garnish with chopped cilantro or parsley on top for an added burst of flavor.

                Presenting: For a fun twist, serve your veggie stir fry on a large platter or a charcuterie board alongside colorful dips like hummus or tzatziki, and a selection of crackers or rice cakes for a delicious, shareable experience!
