1 cup frozen peas and carrots

3 green onions, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced

3 tablespoons teriyaki sauce

1 tablespoon soy sauce

2 eggs, lightly beaten

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
