10 Family Weeknight Stir Fry Recipes

When you need to get a healthy dinner on the table fast, a good stir fry recipe saves the day. Find one here that suits your family’s style, and make it yours!

Meal prep can do wonders for your sanity at 5pm on a weeknight. But if you’re human, like us, prepping every meal ahead of time just isn’t going to happen. (Hey, a little flexibility is healthy, too.)

Even when you don’t have food prepped, your family still has to eat. Unbelievable, right? 😉

Whenever possible–even on nights when we have to throw something together at the last minute–we strive for balanced dinners that pack in fruits and veggies. A stir fry recipe makes this entirely possible. And tasty, too!

Stir fries make great “clear-out-the-fridge” dinners, because you can literally throw in any veggie and leftover protein for a healthy, fast, and rainbow-colored meal. If you’re still getting the hang of stir-fry cooking, trying a few of these recipes will help you get down the techniques, and also learn what flavors your family likes.

Heat up your skillet, and let’s get started!
