It’s time for Karen’s Killer Fixin’s! Over the years, I’ve filled two 4-inch, 3-ring binders with my own creations as well as recipes my family and friends were willing to share with me. I simply love to cook and want to share that love with my readers. So every Friday, I share one recipe I think you and your family might enjoy. It might be a main course recipe from my own kitchen or a guest author favorite. It could be a cookie or baked item. Candy. Salads. Whatever strikes the eye and fancy…which today is STIR FRY VEGETABLES!!

I’ve never met a stir fry I didn’t like! I’m always on the lookout for new variations on an old theme. The wonderful thing about stir fry recipes is that they’re quick to cook (well, once you get all of the ingredients chopped and ready to throw together) and they taste fresh with almost any meal. If you decide to take it a step further and throw in a bit of meat chunks, it’s an all-in-one meal for the entire family. There are never any leftovers in my house when we have stir fry!

I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s. Happy eating!

Karen
