Heat oil over medium-high heat in a wok or saute pan and add onion, garlic and ginger; stir-fry for 3 minutes or until softened before stirring in scallions to cook for one more minute.
Add cabbage, red bell pepper, and tamari to a pan and cook until the cabbage wilts; about five minutes. Adjust seasoning as necessary before serving.
Stir fry is an easy and quick meal option; simply top your stir fry with proteins such as chicken or beef to enjoy it quickly. Leftovers should be stored in airtight containers in the fridge.
