Chow Murray

Okay so we didn't end up shopping last night as planned. So there was a need for a really quick dinner and it was also a good chance to use up some of the vegetables hiding at the bottom of my fridge and make room for some fresh ones.

So with quick, easy and use lots of vegetables on the action plan this is what we came up with... I guess it's a take on Chow Mein and have decided to call it Chow Murray!! (corny I know - sorry!)
