Chef's Tips

  • Prep all your vegetables before you start cooking, as the stir-fry process moves quickly.
  • If you like a bit of heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or sriracha if you have it (not listed in inventory).
  • Don't overcook the spinach; add it at the very end to keep its bright color and nutrients.
