Lenten Dinner Recipes

One quick and easy meal you can throw together with leftovers is a quick stir fry!  Start with 2 cups of leftover cooked veggies such as – broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, snap peas, mushrooms, shelled edamame, then mix with low-sodium teriyaki sauce (or bibimbap sauce) with ¾ cup of cooked whole grain rice or other grain of choice with 2 fried eggs cooked to likeness. I prefer over-easy! Kick it up a notch with some Sriracha.
