Simple Veggies and Wild Rice

Simple Veggies and Rice (Recipe and Photo by: Callen Rhoads)


This is a recipe that Jake asks for at least once a week. It's simple, easy, delicious, and healthy!

You can use whatever veggies you want to stir fry. I used whatever I had left over in the fridge. I made extra rice because I'm using half of it for the stuffed squash that I'm making tonight.

Here is the recipe:

Ingredients
2 TBS of Olive Oil
1 medium sweet onion ( half diced, half cut into thin slices)
1 red pepper
1 medium yellow squash
1 medium zuchini
1 carrot thinly sliced
4 cloves thinly diced garlic
1/2 bunch of broccoli
1 package shitake mushrooms, diced

vegetable broth (amount varies depending on how much rice you make)

salt, pepper to taste

1 cup wild rice, I use Lundberg's (picture below) 

Lundberg Wild Blend Rice (Available at most grocery stores)

For the Rice
**cook according to the package in a medium sauce pan with whatever desired amount of rice you'd like.

Half way through the cooking process, add the diced onion, mushroom, and 2 diced cloves of garlic.

For the Veggies

Heat the olive oil in a saute pan on medium heat. Add the remaining veggies to the pan.  Cook until tender. Add your desired amount of salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs if desired.


Let cool, plate, and enjoy! It's that easy!
