Top tip for a perfect stir-fry

When it comes to speedy midweek dinners, these plant-based stir-fry recipes are our go-to choices for veggie-packed bowls. If you tend to get busy during the week, we highly recommend pre-prepping your veggies and storing them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. You can even whisk up the sauce ahead of time, so all you need to do is sauté the veggies, stir in the noodles or rice, and combine with the sauce. This is a real game-changer for busy weeknight dinners and makes life a little easier, too.
