Quick-Veggie Brown Rice
Course: gluten free, vegan, vegetarian
Calories: 22kcal
- 2 cups of cooked brown rice
- 2 tsp of toasted sesame oil
- 2 cloves of minced garlic
- 1 tsp grated ginger
- 1/2 onion diced
- 2 cups of frozen veggies I used a corn, pea, and fava bean combo
- 1/4 cup of low sodium soy sauce
- A pinch of red pepper flakes
- 2 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds
Heat the oil in a medium saut pan over a medium high heat. Add in the onions, garlic, red pepper flakes and ginger; cook for 2-3 minutes or until everything smells great and the onions are beginning to break down a bit.
Add the frozen veggies and give them a few pushes around the pan. Allow them to cook for just a few minutes. You want them to be just heated through, this way they maintain their texture!
Stir in the rice and the soy sauce, be sure to combine everything together and cook until everything is hot, hot, hot!
Top with sesame seeds and enjoy!
