Gut-Enhancing Firecracker Veggie Fiesta

A colorful and flavorful stir-fry that is packed with gut-healthy kimchi and vegetables. This easy-to-make dish is perfect for a quick and healthy weeknight meal.

This recipe was inspired by my love of kimchi and my desire to create a gut-healthy dish that was also flavorful and satisfying. I experimented with different vegetables and spices until I came up with this combination, which is now one of my favorite go-to meals. The kimchi adds a delicious sour and spicy flavor to the dish, while the vegetables provide a crunchy texture and plenty of nutrients.
