Ingredients

  3. Chopped/Diced raw vegetables/left overs
  4. Olive oil or butter
  5. Minced garlic
  6. Ginger

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    If you do not have leftover rice, cook some rice in a yummy vegetable, chicken or beef stock at least 2 hours before preparing meal - the key is having enough rice to equal the amount of veggies you are using. Be sure rice is cooked and cold, and all veggies are chopped/diced prior to cooking.

  2. 2

    Heat olive oil or butter in a saute pan / wok (pan large enough for rice and veggies to be stirred)

  3. 3

    Add garlic, cook for a minute or 2.

  4. 4

    Add veggies, 1 at a time, in order of desired cooking time (example: 1st carrots for 3-5min, then onion, then broccoli, then water chestnuts, then spinach)

  5. 5

    Stir in rice, a couple dashes of ginger, sesame oil and tamari sauce (to taste). Stir fry for about 5min, then remove from heat and enjoy!

  6. 6

    Any veggie combo will work, here is some inspiration: corn, peas, pea pods, sugar snaps, carrots, peppers, mushrooms, onion, broccoli, spinach, asparagus, waterchestnuts, eggplant, tomato, sweet potato, zucchini - add left over shrimp, chicken, pork, beef... anything goes!!! Even bacon!
