Noodle Vegetable Stir Fry

This recipe is so good, that it was even published on the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies website.

We love this stir fry because it’s…

  • Easy to make
  • Veggie-loaded
  • Flavor-packed
  • Crunchy
  • Saucy
  • Delicious

Serve with rice or noodles

Sometimes, I serve stir-fries like this one over rice and sometimes noodles.

The rice options I usually choose are jasmine or brown jasmine. Since my husband is not as big of a brown rice fan as I am, we like to make a mixture of both in the rice steamer.

The two types of rice cook well together–1 cup white jasmine + 1 cup brown jasmine.

Rice steamer just makes life easier

My rice steamer is a necessity in the kitchen and is used at least once a week. Not only do we make rice, but also bulgur and quinoa in ours.

What I like about it the most is that all I have to do is add water and walk away–no stirring or watching required. I can go walk the dog or do the laundry.

When it’s completely cooked, the steamer automatically switches to Keep Warm and will be ready to eat whenever we are.

The recipe card at the bottom of the page has the full list of ingredients with measurements and instructions.

Nutrition in brown rice

Brown rice gives you small amounts of thiamin, riboflavin, vitamin B-6, folate and niacin.

These B vitamins tend to work hand-in-hand to pull energy from the foods you eat, while supporting brain processes and blood-cell formation.

You’ll also get magnesium, phosphorus and a little calcium, to keep your bones strong; in addition to potassium and a minimal amount of sodium, for fluid balance and heart functions.–LiveStrong

nutrition in bok choy
A cup of raw, shredded bok choy contains 31.9 micrograms of vitamin K and 1,877 micrograms of beta-carotene.

Other add-in options for this recipe would be Napa Asian cabbage, water chestnuts, green onion, red-yellow-green bell peppers, little bamboo slices, etc. Options are endless!

I am often asked which knives I use personally, and I have to say that it is Victorinox. They are the same company that makes Swiss Army Knives and the quality is excellent.
