Ingredients
- 2(8oz) cans jackfruit
- 10 oz cabbage shredded
- 8 oz tuscan kale
- 1 cup carrots shredded
- 1 ½ cups white rice day old
- 1 large onion
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon jerk seasoning mild
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce

Instructions
Prepare the Jackfruit
- Drain and rinse the jackfruit, removing any seeds.

Build Your Base
- Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat.
- Add the cabbage, Tuscan kale, shredded carrots, and onions. Cook until softened.
Cook the Veggies
- Add the shredded jackfruit along with thyme, garlic powder, jerk seasoning, Thai basil, two tablespoons of soy sauce, salt, and black pepper.
- Let everything cook together, then drizzle a little agave to balance the heat from the jerk seasoning and the slight bitterness from the greens.
Add the Rice

- Pour in the remaining soy sauce and mix everything together until evenly combined.
- Serve warm!
