- Place snap peas in a bowl of water and drain. Add to wok, toss to combine and stir-fry for 2 - 3 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine vegetable broth, lemon juice, olive oil, soy sauce and arrowroot powder. Stir to combine.
- Pour sauce mixture over stir-fried vegetables and toss to coat. Cook for 1 minutes until sauce thickens.

Tips:
- Substitute snap peas for other seasonal vegetables, such as green beans, snow peas, broccoli or your favorites.
- Arrowroot is a finely ground white starch from the arrowroot plant. Arrowroot is easy to digest and is high in calcium. Use arrowroot to replace cornstarch for an excellent thickener.
