Ingredients

Almost nutritionally identical to zucchini, yellow squash (sometimes simply called summer squash) is an excellent source of folate. This essential nutrient helps break down homocysteine, a precursor to disease

Instructions

Heat a wok or large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add 2 tsp. oil and heat until oil shimmers.

Add zucchini, squash, greens, and bell pepper to the wok. Stir-fry until vegetables start to brown and soften, 35 minutes. Stir in lima beans and corn, stir-frying just until softened, 23 minutes. Add scallions, garlic, and thyme, stirring until garlic is no longer fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in Tabasco.

Stir in rice and zest until rice is heated through and just starts to brown, 35 minutes. Make a 3- to 4-inch-wide well in rice and vegetables; heat remaining 1 tsp. oil and stir in the eggs. Continue stirring constantly in the well until eggs are almost scrambled. Then stir eggs into the rest of the stir-fry.

Season with soy sauce and basil. Divide stir-fry among 4 bowls.

Stir often to keep the vegetables moving in the wok. This ensures they´ll cook quickly and evenly.
