Meatless Monday – Quick Veggie Stir-Fry

This week’s Meatless Monday recipe is courtesy of my daughter, Valerie, who graciously is helping with the recipes being featured in this series.  On Mondays I have a night class so it’s usually up to my husband and her to figure out what they are eating for dinner.  This particular Monday evening my husband wasn’t home for dinner so Valerie made a meal-for-one dinner.  Being at college she’s had to cook for herself and this is one of the meals she would make.  I didn’t have any spaghetti or fettuccine noodles for her to use so she  improvised with the noodles from a package of Ramen soup. I would say if you are going to make this to serve four, use a 12 ounce package of spaghetti noodles and up the vegetables as well the amount of General Tso Stir Fry Sauce that suits your tastes.  You really can’t go wrong with this dish whether serving for one or four.  It’s all good!

 If you’re short on prep time in the kitchen – Valerie suggests to buy the already sliced fajita mix of vegetables and a small carton of sliced mushrooms from the produce section in the grocery store.
