Stir fries are usually made of the following (but you can use as many or as few ingredients as you want):
 - some type of fat Coconut Oil and Avocado Oil
 - some type of protein:  Chicken and Crab Meat (one of the kids we are feeding is a pescatarian so I cooked the things in seperate pans
 - some type of carbohydrate: Jasmine Rice and salad greens
 - some hard vegetables:  Zucchini, Carrots, green beans,  Mushrooms
 - some leafy vegetables: Cabbage and salad greens
 - some type of spices or herbs: Garlic, Salt, coconut aminos, mushroom dark soy sauce, honey, chili powder, worchestershire sauce, sesame oil
 - and maybe some type of topping: Rice, Salad Greens,

It was super yummy and absolutely filling

Here is my submission for "Cook a Stir Fry - PEP BB food.sand.stir":

I am providing a description of the following:
 - a rough recipe of what you put in your stir fry

and photos of the following:
 - a picture of you preparing some of the ingredients (or the leftovers you are using)
 - a picture of your ingredients in the pan
 - a picture of your finished stir fry!
 
Recipe:
a little cumin seed
olive oil
1/4 large cabbage, shredded
a little cabbage salted and pounded as if for sauerkraut but not fermented
12 oz crimini mushrooms, sliced
1 star anise pod
I roasted the cumin briefly in a cast iron frying pan, then removed and set to the side. I heated the olive oil and added the mushrooms, stirring them until they softened. Then I added the cabbage, roasted cumin, and star anise, stirred until the cabbage softened, then covered the pan, reduced the heat to low and cooked for five minutes.

This was a "see what we have and throw it in" stir fry. Here is what I put in:
Onion
Pepper
Celery
Mushrooms
Carrots
Peas
Beets
Beef Sausage
Garlic
Ginger
Soy sauce
Sesame Oil
Hoisin Sauce

It turned out very colorful! Though next time I will let the beets cook a little longer.

I cooked my rice with coconut milk and threw in fresh spinach and beet greens from my garden. I also cooked frozen carrots with a handful of sugar snap peas, also from my garden. I then cooked the chicken, cut up, in butter, minced garlic, soy sauce, & brown sugar. When all was done, I mixed it all together in my big white bowl. Delish!

BBV price: 1
Note: It looks like you're missing a photo of the food cooking in the pan. Requirements have also gotten more strict about food touching plastic since the PEP program first started, and food (such as the frozen carrots) cannot be obviously from a plastic bag.

For this BB I made a Chinese chicken and broccoli stir fry. Here's the recipe I used: https://www.theseasonedmom.com/chicken-and-broccoli-stir-fry/  

I'm including pictures of:  
 - me preparing some of the ingredients (or the leftovers you are using)
 - my ingredients in the pan
 - my finished stir fry!

Thanks! And my family says thanks too, they said it was yummy.

I'm personally not a fan of bitter melon...

But the one time I found it tollerable, it was like this:

Slice the bitter melon thin, and blanch it in salty water.
Put sesame oil in a wok or similar pan and heat it until it smokes. Add fresh peas in the pod, the white parts of negi/ welsh onion cut on a bias, and the drained bitter melon. Cook on high tossing frequently until partly cooked. Add some miso stirred in water or dashi to taste, and a splash of hon-mirin (very sweet rice wine, used as a subtle sweetener, don't confuse it with aji-mirin, which is very different). When the liquid has become a sauce, then serve.

Serve with some grilled fish and white rice. (White rice is the best if it's good rice.) This is a nice simple breakfast. If you like dandelion greens, you will probably really like this.
