Rainbow Stir-Fry with Zesty Tahini Dressing

March 29, 2017 by Samuel Warde

rainbow stir fry

The other day, I went to the grocery store to pick up a few small items, but that all changed as soon as I saw all the stunningly vibrant and colorful produce that had just arrived. Before I knew it, my cart was full of veggies that weren’t on my list, and I was already working on a recipe in my head. This recipe.

Lately, I’ve been testing my recipes out on my parents whenever I have the opportunity. Mainly because my parents typically don’t like anything vegan. My dad won’t even try a dish if he knows it’s vegan. My mom is more open to trying stuff, but she’s more critical than my dad. If I can get either of my parents to like a dish, then I know I’ve won over a tough crowd. It’s easy to make vegan food a vegan will like, but it’s very hard to make vegan food a reluctant omnivore will even consider.

So I tried this stir-fry out on my mom last night, and she absolutely loved it. She raved about it for several minutes and asked me if I’d make it for her again. That’s a huge victory in my book.

It was kind of funny… as soon as my mom took a bite of the Beyond Meat chicken, she immediately looked confused and she asked me, “is that chicken?!” For a moment, she thought I had broke vegan and put real chicken in the stir-fry.
