The Best Stir Fry Ever!

This is a recipe I make for dinner all the time. Once you track down all of the ingredients it's an easy recipe. Once you try it you will want to make it all the time. If you are not sure what dark/sweet soy sauce is you can see my explanation of what it is in this post. My girlfriend put together all of the detailed nutrition information for this recipe which can be found at the bottom. Hope you all enjoy it.
