This black pepper stir fry sauce was so good.  If you love cracked pepper as much as I do, this sauce is for you.

I am a self-proclaimed condiment whore.  If you are too, then you probably already have everything to make this sauce.

The best part of this sauce was the fresh cracked pepper.  It has a nice warm feeling without being too spicy.

How do you crack peppercorns?

A great way is a mortar and pestle!  They are cheap – I found mine at Tuesday Morning, but since their products rotate so much, you can find this one which is similar at Walmart.

This is what it will look like – I added a teaspoon of peppercorns to the mortar, and used 1/2 teaspoon of ground pepper in the black pepper stir fry sauce.

Yaki soba noodles are awesome to keep on hand.  Each package comes individually wrapped and they are fully cooked.  You just need to microwave them for a minute to warm them up, and then just toss them in the stir fry.

Stir fry’s are also a great way to use up any leftover protein or veggies at the end of the week.  That plate above was 12 points on #teamgreen, and totally worth the points.  I hope that everyone knows that they can spend that amount of points and not think “that’s too many points!”

I get that comment a lot – sometimes saying “there was no way I would spend that many points on a meal!”  But then I see how some of them end up hoarding points all day, and then eating all their food from 6-10 p.m.  Eat bigger meals and I promise you won’t be standing in front of your pantry at 9:00 p.m.

If you love stir fry, try my shrimp and green bean stir fry.  Be sure to let me know if you try this.  Until next time!

This stir fry sauce takes just 2 minutes to prep and can be added to any stir fry dish! The best part of this sauce was the fresh cracked pepper. It has a nice warm feeling without being too spicy. On all WW plans, this sauce is 3 points. #stirfry #stirfrysauce #homemadesauce #weightwatchers
