Snow peas, Chicken & Carrot Stir-fry

Last night's dinner was Snow peas, Chicken & Carrot Stir-fry.  I just made a trip to the grocery in the morning so I got all my veggies on hand.  I was lucky to find a good bargain.  I bought the following:

  • snow peas for Php 8.50
  • carrots for Php 7.05
  • onions for Php 11.63
  • 1/2 kilo of chicken breast for Php 101.40.


This dish has it all--protein, carbohydrates,vitamins, minerals, etc.  Also, it takes only about ten minutes to cook this dish.
