1 teaspoon canola or peanut oil
2 medium ribs of celery, chopped
1 medium carrot, chopped
1 cup chopped onion
2 medium green onions (green and white parts), sliced
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
8 ounces light firm tofu, cut into bite size strips
¾ cup frozen shelled soybeans (edamame), thawed
2 tablespoons soy sauce (lowest sodium available)
2 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
3 cups cold cooked brown rice, any clumps broken up

In a wok or large heavy skillet, heat the oil over high heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the celery, carrot, onion, green onions, and garlic for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to medium high. Cook for 3 minutes, or until the carrots are tender-crisp.

Stir in the remaining ingredients except the rice. Stir in the rice. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until heated through, stirring frequently.
