A wonderful discovery - made the first time out of leftovers! Discoveries don't get much better than that. How many times do we find ourselves staring into the depths of the refrigerator, wondering what we can make for dinner? The second time it was perfected (with more vegetables). Behold, I share with you Sweet Chili Stir Fry!!
