Do you know when a joke officially becomes a  Dad joke? When it becomes apparent! I\u2019ve been a parent for 26 years now and my 2nd kid graduated college last month. This is a milestone! Not only for my daughter who is getting ready to start adulting, but for me having fulfilled my goal of getting both kids through college. Woo hoo!<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate, I made some stuff that I like for Father\u2019s Day. June also happens to be National Fresh Fruit and Vegetables Month, and I love a good veggie stir fry, so I made <em>Yasai Itame.<\/em> This is the best thing for eating healthy and balancing out the guilty desserts that I\u2019ll be showing you later in this post. I used a recipe from Just One Cookbook (link below). <\/p>\n<p>Start with the protein (pork is the classic choice) and the veggies that take the longest to cook first.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start.jpg\" alt=\"Yasai Itame - how to start\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1200\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7139\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start-320x213.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yasai-start-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Add the rest\u2014I have snow peas, cabbage and bean sprouts that I added to the onions and carrots.

Zojirushi enthusiast and professional writer. California resident with roots in Hawaii and Japan. Classic rock, popcorn movies, audio books, spam, sushi and cone filtered coffee. Guilty pleasures include donuts and pop bands like ABBA and Wham! Don't laugh, you should see my vinyl collection--I give hair bands and prog equal credit.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog"],"url":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/author\/btanimoto\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7137","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7137"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7137\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7173,"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7137\/revisions\/7173"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7143"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7137"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7137"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7137"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
