Mom's Paleo Stir-Fry

My brother follows the Paleo lifestyle, and my mom made up this dish when he and I were both over for a visit one night. It was so good! Also, if desired, it is easily adaptable, switching out veggies or meats for whatever suits your preference. To keep it truly Paleo, do not substitute tofu for your protein.
