  • Don't overcook the vegetables: You want them to be tender-crisp, not mushy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and color to your dish. Some good options include broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, and snow peas.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really brings the dish together. Be sure to use a sauce that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Serve over rice: Rice is the traditional accompaniment to moo shu stir-fry, but you can also serve it over noodles or quinoa.
