Sometimes we love to make a huge stir-fry and slowly eat it all week. Other times, our attention span is shorter and we’d prefer to eat it for just one meal. Enter this brilliant single-serve ginger-pineapple shrimp stir-fry recipe. It’s a tad bit spicy, full of fresh veggies and anything but boring.

1 garlic clove, minced

2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger

½ red bell pepper, thinly sliced
