Easy Shrimp Stir Fry I Made It

Easy Shrimp Stir Fry

mommyluvs2cook 9 years ago
I needed something quick for last night and this fit the bill! I couldn't find fresh bean sprouts even though I know my store carries them. Is there a season for bean sprouts or something? If so I wouldn't know lol. I had to use canned. Also had to sub out sugar snap peas for the snow peas. I used Coconut Aminos for the soy sauce (all-natural soy sauce substitute) and added a couple tsp. of some homemade hoisin sauce I had in the fridge, as suggested. SO GOOD!! Served over zucchini noodles. Although I was not in the mood for anything spicy, a dash of red pepper flakes would be a great addition, or sriracha as stated by Joce :)

Thanks Karen! It was good :) You can certainly cut your zucchini noodles by hand which I have done in the past, but I invested in this little gadget http://www.amazon.com/Veggetti-Spiral-Vegetable-Slicer-Veggie/dp/B00IIVRB3W/ref=sr_1_cc_3?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1409144879&sr=1-3-catcorr&keywords=vegetable+spiralizer
I love it!

It looks SOO YUMMY, Michelle! No there isn't a season for bean sprouts. In fact you could sprout your own, anytime easily, from Mung Beans. I used to do many things like that when I was a Vegetation. Here are a few links on how to do them several different easy ways. Then you never need to deal with ones from the store again, if you don't want to. I used to just use a jar with cheesecloth on the top held with an elastic band. Here are a couple of links, but you can just Google how to do it and maybe get more ideas.

I love the zucchini noodles! What a great idea! I like the little spiral gadget too! I added it to my Wish List on Amazon.ca as well:) Your pic looks awesome! Thanks for the lovely review:)

The zucchini noodles are so cool. I have looked at those gadgets and had one on my wish list at Amazon for a while. May end up back on there. :)
A delicious looking recipe! That is something I think I would really like. I'd probably end up using the canned bean sprouts, too. I kinda like them plus I don't remember seeing fresh where I shop. Beautiful picture!

Yeah I would love to have a veggie spiral thing like this one http://www.everythingkitchens.com/paderno-world-cuisine-spirooli-slicer-48397-99.html?gclid=CjwKEAjwg_afBRD3rpChlqiKt1ESJACwY6Nka1urDVLAnjY2J01UVYrCIclUV129vemAtMPC3vZqRxoC5wnw_wcB

I just got a chance to watch those two videos on sprouts Joce. That looks super easy, but I have no idea where to get the mung beans from? Wow, the lady in the second video seems nervous and a little awkward, but she is a sprouting machine! I didn't know that you could sprout so much stuff! Amazing!

I think you can use other beans to sprout. It has been a long time since I read anything on the subject, though. The gadget for making zucchini noodles is cool but I'm not sure I'd use it often enough to make it worth while.

Cool thanks Joce! I am really into DIY stuff so this looks like a fun little project for me and I KNOW the kids will love watching the process of the bean each day :)
