So here's a quick one for you that is JAM PACKED with flavor. You could totally sub in other veggies--it's kind of a "clean out the veggie drawer" sort of stir fry!
For you 21-Day-Fixers, I would count this meal as 1 red, 1 yellow, 1 green, and one spoon :) You could double-down on some containers and enjoy a large portion too!

16 oz beef, cut into 2 1/2-inch strips (I found an organic strip steak cheap, and used that. Pick a cut of meat you like!)
2 cups brown rice, prepared (follow box directions for 4 servings—want some for leftovers! Can add 1 tsp of ginger and lime zest to cooking liquid for extra flavor
2 tspn minced fresh ginger, divided (optional, but worth it! Dried ginger would work too!)

Preparation:
In
a large bowl, whisk 1/2 cup lime juice, vinegar, honey, 1 tsp soy sauce, 1 tsp
sesame oil, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper and 1 tbsp water. Stir in 2 cloves minced
garlic, minced ginger, jalapeno, ½ green onions and
cilantro. Add beef, toss to coat and set aside to marinate for about 15
minutes.
Meanwhile, heat a large skillet on medium-high, heating 1 tbsp of oil (I used coconut). Add beef and marinade and sauté, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add bell pepper, remaining green onion and zucchini and sauté for 5 more minutes. Add bok choy and sauté until tender, about 2 minutes.
Divide rice among serving plates and top with beef mixture.

Why are certain ingredients divided? They're never added in later.
