Vegetable Options- You can use leftover vegetables on your fridge that needs to be cooked soon or harvest them fresh from your own veggie garden! The most common vegetables used for this dish are cabbage, carrots, onions, celery, bell pepper, cauliflower, broccoli, garlic, young corn, mushrooms, beans, bamboo shoots, and bean sprouts. It is mostly described as a "stir-fry of vegetables, meat, and seafood that comes with a thick sauce." This is the reason why Chop Suey has no exact formal definition.
You can choose whatever you want or omit the ones you do not like.
