Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cooking the Brown Rice

    Rinse the brown rice under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed brown rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

  2. 2

    Preparing the Veggies

    While the rice is cooking, chop the bell peppers, carrot, zucchini, and broccoli into bite-sized pieces.

  3. 3

    Sautéing the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Then, add the chopped vegetables and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.

  4. 4

    Adding the Protein

    If using chicken, ensure it is cooked and diced. If using tofu or tempeh, cube them accordingly. Add your choice of protein to the skillet and sauté for an additional 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Finishing Touches

    Stir in the cooked brown rice, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine all ingredients and cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.
