Chicken & Sweet Potato Stir Fry with Miso Soup
Stir Fry’s are an easy way to hit all the food groups for a tasty and nutritious meal. Choose a protein (chicken, beef, pork, fish, tofu, beans), a carbohydrate (rice, sweet potatoes, noodles) and add some veggies with sauce and your good to go. We love pairing this with miso soup but it's optional.
