Tips:

I came up with this recipe for my husband who is on an invalid diet,
so this recipe doesn't have onions and garlic, or nightshades like
tomato & potato.

There are so many other seasonings, you won't miss them in this
recipe. But add them if you like, and stir fry with the carrots and
celery.
