Spicy Stir Fry

You'll see in my pictures of the dish that I don't have a very high ratio of rice to veggies.  I used a serving of rice for one but ended up making enough stir fry for my parents as well.  I'm not writing in amounts of the vegetables because in a stir fry you don't need to be exact--put as much as you want.

I love egg in my stir fry but you can easily leave it out to make this vegan and still get plenty of protein from the peanuts.
