Chicken And/Or Tofu Stir-Fry image

I received this recipe from a friend, but haven't had the chance to make it yet. The best stir-fries are made with the freshest vegetables, which makes this a great choice as a "market-day" meal.

I love how versatile this recipe is. I didn't have any chicken on hand, so I used all tofu instead. It turned out just as delicious!
