Shrimp Stir Fry
Shrimp Stir Fry
This vibrantly colored stir-fry features shrimp with snow peas, sugar snap peas and green peas. The stir-frying goes quickly, so be sure to measure all of the ingredients before you start cooking. Serve with brown rice.
PS. If you are soy free I recommend using Coconut Secret Organic Raw Coconut Aminos instead of soy sauce as an alternative!
