This is my Italian spin on the classic stir fry… sauteed shrimp, red pepper, garlic, red potato, spinach… it’s a one pan dish that doesn’t disappoint!
Lately my mantra has been to use as many fresh ingredients as possible when cooking. Because, this about it — when are fresh ingredients NOT healthy to eat? It’s my little tactic for smarter eating. And, when local market stands start popping up in the warm summer months, it will be an absolute pleasure to eat that way!
Hubs and I loved this stir fry, and I hope you do as well! Feel free to substitute any fresh veggies you have on hand. Snap peas, broccoli, you name it!
