Stir Fried Silly

We love stir fry at our house.  My Mom bought me this great new wok for Christmas and I LOVE it!!! Clean up is a breeze, food tastes great, it is calphalon so there is not a need for a lot of oil. Simply wonderful.  Tonight I made a shrimp stir fry with broccoli, celery, red pepper, and  mushrooms. Store bought stir fry sauces do not meet the definition of clean; therefore I read lots of different recipes and created one that suited our tastes.  I didn't measure all of the ingredients, but I definitely will next time so I can post the recipe.  Essentially all that was in it was low sodium tamari, natural peanut butter, ginger, chili garlic sauce, and a small amount of canola oil.  I think next time I may even try to leave the oil out completely and see how that turns out. I did a quick nutritional content and it came in at 100 calories per serving but even with 1/2 cup of brown rice and the sauce my dinner was only about 350 calories.

All in all I am feeling pretty good.  I have a cold, but really who doesn't?!?

On another note, I am having a hard time staying motivated with my classes.  I feel like I have been in school forever and just want to be done. Almost. Almost. Almost.  My daily mantra.
