      • Add the snow peas. Also add 2-3 Tbsp. of the stir-fry sauce. Stir-fry 1-2 minutes.<\/li>\n
      • Add the rest of the vegetables plus the remaining stir-fry sauce. Stir-fry another 1-2 minutes, or until vegetables have softened slightly, but are still firm and colorful.<\/li>\n
      • Turn heat down to low. Add the oranges, stirring gently to combine.<\/li>\n
      • Dish up o<\/em>nto serving plates, topping each portion with an orange slice.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
