Cheater Thai Stir-Fry | Nourishing Nuggets
Looking for a unique flavored stir-fry that you can whip up in a few minutes with items Americans have on hand? The search is over! I’m pretty glad, because I LOVE Asian foods but have had a tough time finding a healthy & quick recipe that ALL the members of the family enjoy, and can be made without special ingredients. Since we don’t agree on loving the genre, I don’t go out of my way to purchase odd seasonings. This did it though! Bam. Unique, quick, healthy, easy! And, it includes all of the Big 3’s (Protein, Omega-3’s & Live Foods)!
Cheater Thai Stir-Fry
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce (I used Braggs Coconut Aminos)
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar (I used rapadura)
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder (I used minced garlic)
- 2 teaspoons peanut butter
- 1 tsp prepared mustard
- 1 lb ground beef (I used ground bison since it’s what I had on hand)
- 2 teaspoons olive oil (I also added roasted peanut oil for a more nutty flavor)
- 1 (16 ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables
- Flax & Chia meal to sprinkle at the table
I found the base recipe here. This is how easy it was: First, I started some rice cooking using homemade chicken broth instead of water for extra nutrients & flavor. Then I browned the ground bison, stirred in the aminos, rapadura, garlic, PB & mustard. I set that aside & sautéed the veggies in the oils. Threw the meat in with the veggies. Voila! Done. I plated the rice beside the Stir-Fry & sprinkled on some flax/Chia meal for omega-3’s and dinner was served. It look less than an hour and I had a full visit with the neighbor while it was cooking. Everyone loved it & requested it be made again. Happy mama!
