*If you don't already have cooked quinoa sitting in the fridge, rinse 1 cup of dry quinoa and add it to a small pot with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil then cover and reduce to low and let cook for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and let sit in the pot for another 5 minutes, covered, before using. Any other grain like rice, farro, etc can also be used here instead.
Looking to boost the protein content of these lettuce cups? Try adding 1/2 cup crumbled tofu, finely diced chicken, or salmon to the recipe. Cook any of them in the pan with the broccoli, and proceed with the recipe as written, doubling the quantity of soy, sesame oil, and spices, since the protein will need extra flavor.
