The simmer sauce used in this recipe was provided to me for free as a part of Influenster’s Seeds of Change campaign. All opinions are my own.
I always love to try out new recipes around here. I especially love to try out new recipes that can be ready in 30 minutes during the week. But let’s be honest about meal planning for a minute, can we? Sometimes, you just get in a rut. We end up rotating through the same few meals often around here. It’s fine because it works and we like what we’re eating. But every now and then, it’s nice to try something new. Am I right?
So, when I was contacted by Influenster to be apart of the Seeds of Change campaign, I immediately jumped on board as a way to force myself to try something new in the kitchen and I’m glad I did.
This sweet & sour chicken stir fry was so easy to put together and it provided dinner for 2 plus leftovers for lunch the next two days – you can’t beat that!

Not only was the Seeds of Change sauce absolutely delicious, I was glad to learn that it was created using certified organic ingredients and that 1% of sales from these foods go to local, community-based gardening and farming initiatives across the United States.

When was the last time you made something new in the kitchen? Do you enjoy new things or do you tend to stick to the same meals during the week?

It’s so easy to get into a meal rut, I love trying out new recipes and often head to Pinterest for inspiration. This meal looks easy and delicious!
It really was. We end up eating the same things over and over so this was a welcome change!
I wish my children would be more adventurous and try new flavours! The sauce sounds lovely #bloggersbest
My little one had chicken nuggets – true life. But the adults definitely enjoyed the sweet & sour chicken!
Hi Mary-Leigh, I am hopeless at stir-frying, I notice that you cooked the veg then the chicken. I think maybe I put too much in the pan at once! A nice quick & easy recipe, perfect for in the week.
Popped over from the #weekendbloghop
I cook them separately just to make sure each gets cooked well but not overdone! I mixed them at the end to get all the flavors mixed together! It definitely makes a difference with how much you put in the pan at once!

I never thought a dish like sweet & sour chicken could be this easy. I will be adding this to our meal rotation for sure!
It was shockingly easy to make and ended up being really tasty!
I like to try new meals too! I’ve actually tried three just this week, although that is definitely not the norm.
Good for you! Three is a lot in a week! I like to try new things, but if I’m being honest, I find it way easier to commit to new dessert recipes!
The flavor of this recipe sounds sooo good. If I wasn’t vegetarian, I’d totally try it!
