Tri-Colored Potato Stir-Fry

A stir-fry is a great way to add an array of delicious vegetables into your diet. It’s quick, easy, and low in fat. Best part, you can add pretty much any vegetables to the mix. With this recipe, I’m using all the colors of the vegetables world by incorporating tri-colored potatoes which include my favorite, the purple potato, alongside three different colored bell peppers. These vegetables are crisp, crunchy and chalk full of antioxidant power.
