Mixing the Broccoli and Rice Stir-fry

Broccoli and Rice Stir-fry (1 serving)

I keep forgetting that my frying pan isn't that big. It's hard to stir-fry food when it keeps trying to fall out. This dish was pretty bland and taste-less.

Man, I really need to find a better stir-fry recipe. Certainly a smaller one.

Boy choy, 1/2 of a bulb: $0.54 at Safeway
