Garden veggie stir-fry

A fast, colorful plate full of fiber — over brown rice.

⏱ 25 min · serves 4

Ingredients

  • 1 head broccoli, in florets
  • 2 carrots, sliced thin
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup green beans
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • A handful of cashews
  • Brown rice, to serve

Steps

  1. 1Get a pan or wok very hot. Add a little oil, then the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds.
  2. 2Add the firmer vegetables first (carrots, broccoli, green beans) and stir-fry a few minutes.
  3. 3Add the pepper and toss until everything is bright and just tender.
  4. 4Splash in the low-sodium soy and sesame oil, toss, then fold in the cashews.
  5. 5Serve over brown rice.

💚 The heart-smart moves

  • Low-sodium soy sauce instead of regular — big sodium savings.
  • Pile on the vegetables; let them be the meal.
  • Cashews add good fats and crunch — keep the handful to a handful.

A whole plate of fiber and color in under half an hour.
