There is no limit to the serving options for this delectable vegetable stir-fry ready in about 15 minutes. Toast some nori or sesame seeds and sprinkle over the top for a quick and light cold lunch salad. Add 1 or 2 shredded carrots to the skillet along with the cabbage for some bright color, a bit of crunch, and good-for-you fiber and vitamins. Have leftover chicken, chop or shred and stir into the your skillet, cooking until heated through. Quick-cooking rice noodles make a great base that will absorb the cooking liquids for a delicious noodle bowl. The spicy sweetness are wonderful for nights when the weather is turning.
