# Directions:
01 - In a small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, maple syrup, sesame oil, and warm water until smooth. Adjust water for desired pourable consistency. Stir in red pepper flakes if using. Set aside.
02 - Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add a splash of neutral oil if desired for sautéing.
03 - Add broccoli, bell peppers, carrot, sugar snap peas, and onion to the hot skillet. Stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes until vegetables are just tender but still maintain their crisp texture.
04 - Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the vegetables. Cook for 1 minute while stirring constantly to prevent burning.
05 - Pour the prepared peanut sauce over the vegetables. Toss thoroughly to coat all ingredients evenly and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until heated through.
