Heat about 4 tablespoons of your favorite oil in saucepan or wok over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper, snow peas and broccoli. Stir-fry for 3 minutes. Add remaining ingredients in following order, stir-frying 1 minute after each addition: mushrooms and bea sprouts, cashews and pineapple, habaneros, garlic, ginger, tamari, and lime juice; stir in flour to thicken. Serve immediately with brown or white rice.

Make sure you wear gloves when handling the habaneros. I made the mistake of touching my eyes the first time I worked with these peppers- not wearing gloves. Ouch! Tofu is optional.
