ingredients
Protein: Choose One
1 pound lean beef cubes or strips
1 pound lean chicken, boneless, cut into strips
1 pound lean turkey cutlet, cut into strips
1 pound tofu, cut into small 1/4-inch cubes
1 can (15 ounce size) black beans, drained
Vegetables: Choose Three
1 medium onion, sliced thinly
2 medium carrots, sliced into thin rounds
1 red bell pepper, sliced
2 small zucchini, halved and sliced into half moons or strips
2 small yellow squash, halved and sliced into half moons or strips
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup fresh or frozen green beans
Grain: Choose One
3 cups cooked rice (white or brown)
3 cups cooked pasta (linguine, spaghetti, spirals, etc.)
Seasoning: Choose One
1/2 teaspoon Adobo (or sea salt and pepper)
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons canola oil (as needed)
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (more if desired)
directions
If the rice or pasta is not cooked, go ahead and follow the directions on the package and cook it first. While that's cooking, you can wash and prep the vegetables, and thaw or drain the protein as necessary.
About 10 minutes before grain is finished cooking, get ready to cook the protein and veggies. If using beans, just drain and add them in the last step of cooking the vegetables below.
Pour half the oil into a medium saute pan over medium heat and add meat or tofu. Cook until protein is firm and done, seasoning with garlic salt (or Adobo), as it cooks (about 7-8 minutes), depending on the cuts.
Meanwhile, pour remaining oil in another large saute pan over medium heat. Add vegetables, sprinkle with one of the seasonings and saute for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally (now is when you can add those beans, if necessary).
Stir veggies, grain and protein together, sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.

An interesting approach to writing a recipe. I can't see the kids loving this one too much--too many veggies! But it was quick and healthy. Pretty basic.
