This is a great recipe to use when you have some spare cooked rice on hand. It is quite spicy, though, so be careful how much chili you add- unless you like it HOT!

Ingredients:

3 green onions, sliced

1 Tbsp. ginger, peeled and chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 tsp. chinese five spice powder

1/2 pound of lean ground beef (chicken will work, too)

1 package of frozen mixed veggies (or canned if that's what you have on hand)

2 cups cooked brown rice

1 Tbsp. soy sauce

2 tsp. hoisin sauce (you can find this in the ethnic food aisle)

2 tsp. Asian chili and garlic sauce (less for mild heat)

Spray your skillet with non-stick spray. Add the green onions, ginger, and garlic and stir fry for about 1 minute. Throw in the beef and the chinese five spice and cook until beef is browned. Add in remaining ingredients and stir together until hot!

This dish is great served on it's own or as a sandwich wrap!
