Wash and prepare the vegetables: cut broccoli into small florets, thinly slice the carrot, slice the red bell pepper, and trim the ends of the snow peas.
In a small bowl, mix the low sodium soy sauce and rice vinegar, and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add minced garlic and ginger to the pan, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Increase the heat to high and add broccoli, carrots, and red bell pepper. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add snow peas to the pan and continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until all veggies are tender-crisp.
Pour the soy sauce mixture over the vegetables and stir well to combine, cooking for an additional minute.
Remove from heat, sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
Serve hot as a side dish or with a portion of steamed rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
