In fact, I “refreshed” my fave Quinoa Fried Rice Recipe using Minute Ready Serve Rice! Here’s the recipe:
- 3 tablespoon vegan butter
- 1 cup Minute Ready Serve Brown Rice and Quinoa
- 2 tablespoons vegan chicken bullion
- 1/2 cup diced green onion
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1/2 cup bean sprouts
- 1/2 cup diced carrots
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon ginger
- 2 or 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
- 1 (10-ounce) package frozen sweet green peas, thawed and cooked
- 1/2 cup cubed extra firm tofu, pressed, drained (optional)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil to sauté tofu in (if using)
Melt butter in large skillet and sauté quinoa, onion, garlic, bean sprouts, and carrots for 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in bouillon, sugar, ginger and soy sauce. Stir well to make sure all ingredients are well incorporated.
Stir in peas and cook for 1-2 minutes. If you’d like to add tofu, sauté your diced tofu for about 5 minutes over medium heat in about a teaspoon of sesame oil then add it in with the peas. Enjoy!
With all these delicious and nutritious options, lunch, dinner and snack time just got better!
