day 40 - "go to" dinner

our families "go to" dinner is stir fry!  i don't have a recipe (which is both annoying and great) - which is probably why it is our go to dinner when i can't think of anything else to make.  we try to make a menu every week, as fly lady instructed **side bar note** if you have not heard of fly lady go and check her out - we have been implementing many of her ideas/techniques for over the last 8 years.  i have said many, many times that she both saved my marriage and sanity **end of side note** but some weeks, no matter how hard you try to stay on top of your game, you fall behind.  we had no menu for this week, drum roll, STIR FRY!  the beautiful thing about this meal is opening your fridge and pulling out all the veggies you have, chopping them up adding garlic and then creating a sauce out of whatever ingredients you have available.  tonight i made a toasted sesame seed and spicy peanut sauce with veggies over brown rice - voila!  dinner is served and was quite delish if i don't say so myself.
so, the next time you are staring in your fridge trying to figure out what to make for dinner grab your wok or frying pan and make a stir-fry.  you don't even have to have meat - all those veggies are fabulous over brown or white rice!!!
