- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil or preferred cooking oil
- ½ cup finely chopped shallot or onion
- 3 garlic cloves minced (about 1 tablespoon)
- 1 cup frozen vegetable medley
- 1 cup frozen edamame
- 3 cups cooked rice about 1 cup uncooked; I like to use short grain rice

- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey or preferred sweetener

In a large pot or skillet, warm the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the chopped shallot and cook for several minutes, until translucent.
In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together tamari, vinegar, honey and sesame oil.
To the skillet, add the frozen vegetable medley, edamame and garlic. Stir to combine then cook for about 7-10 minutes, until vegetables are tender.
Lastly, add the cooked rice and top with tamari mixture. Stir together until heated through. Serve warm garnished with green onions and enjoy!
