- In a wok or large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 cup broccoli florets, 1 cup sliced bell peppers (any color), and 1/2 cup sliced carrots. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until slightly tender-crisp.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
