Notes

Notes:
Storing and reheating:
Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat in a skillet with a splash of coconut aminos to refresh flavor or microwave on high for 1-2 minutes. It freezes well for up to 3 months. Cool completely before freezing and store in a freezer safe container. Thaw it overnight in the fridge before reheating.
Helpful tips:
  • This bison stir fry tastes even better the next day as the flavors settle in.
  • Make a double batch and store in individual containers for easy grab and go lunches and dinners all week
  • Covering the pan after adding the broccoli helps the broccoli steam.
    Honey is optional but helps balance out the flavors.
  • Whatever vegetables you have on hand works such as green beans, zucchini, snap peas, mushrooms or bell peppers.
