Make your own stir-fry instead of ordering take-out. This dish from Hummusapien is brimming with colorful veggies and whole grain brown rice (or quinoa) — all smothered in a sweet and savory teriyaki sauce. Roasted cashews sprinkled on top add a delightful crunch. Tip: Short on time? Substitute frozen bell peppers, edamame and rice.
