4 medium zucchinis, spiralized into noodles
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 carrot, julienned
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup snap peas
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional for sweetness)
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted peanuts, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
Add the bell pepper, carrot, broccoli, snap peas, garlic, and ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
