My wife and I had a nice vegan lunch. When the store has fresh water chestnuts, that's what I do. Really as much of a delicious snack as a meal, but if I'd made rice with it, it would have been a meal.

1 carrot, sliced very thinly
4 water chestnuts, peeled and sliced
1 onion, cut into large pieces
1 medium size red bell pepper, cut into large pieces
~ 4 oz of white beech mushrooms *Hypsizygus marmoreus*
8 smallish sugar snap peas, sauteed separately (I don't like them)
sunflower oil for cooking
a little tamari
some roasted cashews added after plating, and in my case, cayenne pepper and extra tamari
