Give me some quick and easy ideas.
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

what veg do you like ? lots of htings you can do
here is a simple one
1 onion diced 1 red or yellow or orange bell pepper diced (green are green as in not ripe the other colors seem to taste the same so whatever is on sale) 1 zucchini (about 8 inches) halve length wise , halve those length wise again then cross cut so you have nice even pieces that are a 1/4 and about 1/4 inch thick 1 chicken breast 1/4 inch strips length wise , then cross cut at about 1/2 inch 3-4 mushrooms cut to abotu 1/4 inch slices 1 head broccoli bite size pieces
a large hot skillet with a little oil of your choice
onion first as it starts too get translucent add the pepper and zuchini give that a couple minutes stirring regular to make sure nothing sticks add the chicken and mushrooms, they are small pieces and you need get them cooked not over cooked a few minutes with the chicken in add the broccoli pieces
a few shakes of worshtishire and a few of soy good shake of garlic powder cook till the broccoli is your desired softness and all the meat has changed color to white with no pink
I use a lid to help speed the cooking in my 14 inch skillet I also double this all , but some veg makes too much liquid and you cook that off with the lid off.
that is the basics , you can serve it over rice , I don't any more the sky is the limit on variations an flavor profiles depending on what you can and can't eat , I have a granulated mushroom soup base I use to season mine often , no carbs lots of flavor. there are lots of sugar/carb containing stir fry sauces for all levels of heat and flavor.
thinly sliced carrot can be good bock choy cabbage turnips chard sweet peppers hot peppers celery radish Dacon radish many types of mushroom beans , peas , asparagus garlic ginger root
the meat is sliced small so it cooks fast , then it is the order of the vegetables on how much time they need to cook
some people use a little potato or corn starch to thicken the liquid into a gravy
basically anything you like goes

1 large onion - roughly choped 1 Celery Stalk - diced 1 Bell Pepper - sliced
Caramelize the above in a large frying pan using 1 tbsp of butter and a drop of veg/peanut/canola oil (this raises smoke point of butter)
salt/pepper to taste
Add pre-cooked chicken and 2-3 cloves of garlic crushed/finely diced - cook until garlic is fragrant Add 1/4 cup chicken stock Add grated (fresh) ginger to taste Add 1 tbsp teryaki or soy sauce
1/4 tsp chinese 5 spice Check seasoning
Add broccoli - frozen is fine, cover and steam until broccoli is cooked or heated through
Serve over rice
Just happy to be here.

fresh chicken . REAL butter . Then taco seasoning or Lawrys season salt. Just before taking out throw some provolone or Colby jack cheese on it.
It is unreal good....
3 ingredients 2 if no cheese.

Thanks for the suggestions, I have to watch the sodium and potassium due to my wife's kidney problems.
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.
