Summary
Think of these lunch bowls as the wholesome, more nourishing version of everyone’s favorite takeout dish: saucy beef and broccoli stir-fry. They have all the same umami-rich, savory flavors, but they’re packed with green vegetables and built on a base of broccoli stems, which I find to be totally underrated and underutilized. Although broccoli stems can be enjoyed in a number of ways, here they’re processed into rice-like grains and quickly sautéed for a tender bite with a mild-mannered flavor.
