One of our absolute favorite ways to get heaps of yummy, nutritious vegetables into a meal without putting too much thought into it is with fried rice dishes – well, pseudo-fried rice.
Basically, instead of frying everything in oil, we just cook the rice and stir in all of the other ingredients just before serving. We also like to use brown, black, or wild rice to ensure we reap the benefits that whole grains bring to the table.
If you use high-quality produce, fresh herbs, and a bit of chili sauce, you’ll find this recipe packs as much flavor as the traditional dish, but without the unnecessary calories and added fat.
Have you tried this recipe before? If so, we’d love to hear what you thought (and if you have any secret tweaks you’d like to share, we’re all ears).
