Shrimp and Vegetable Stir Fry FAQs

Can I use frozen vegetables?

Yes, you can use frozen stir-fry vegetable mixes. Just make sure to thaw them first and drain any excess water to prevent sogginess.

What other proteins can I use?

Chicken breast, tofu, or lean beef strips are great alternatives if you don't have shrimp or want to vary your meal.
