Ingredients

  • 1.5 tbsp coconut oil OPTIONAL
  • 2 beets peeled and finely diced
  • 1 inch ginger peeled and minced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/4 tsp ground coriander
  • 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
  • 3 tbsp Thai red curry paste

For the stir-fry vegetables:

  • 1 head broccoli cut into florets
  • 1 green bell peppers cut into strips
  • 1 onion sliced
  • 1/2 head red cabbage chopped
  • 3 cups cooked brown rice
  • 1/2 cup pineapple diced
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce

Instructions

  • Heat the coconut oil in a wok or a wide pan over medium-high heat. Add the beets and cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes, until beets are starting to soften. Add the seasonings and cook for 2-3 minutes until the fragrance is released. Turn off heat and set aside.
  • In a separate wok or a large pan, saute the rest of the vegetables for 5-7 minutes, until bright and crisp-tender. Mix in the cooked rice and diced pineapple. Add the lime and the orange juice, and the soy sauce to the pan and cook, stirring frequently, until heated through.
  • Turn the heat off and carefully stir in the beets. Serve warm.
