My theme for 2014 is Get Uncomfortable. I'm looking forward to doing and saying things that I've never done. Going new places and meeting new people. I'm going to be more open about who I am and my food and life journey. It's time to stop making excuses and go after the life that I truly want. Maybe you can to relate to this.
I'll talk more about this in the coming weeks, but for now, let's have dinner.
I love putting together a quick stir-fry. Fresh vegetables, amazing flavor and quick eats always make me smile.
The whole family loved this simple and delicious recipe.
