brown rice bowl

Brussels Sprouts Brown Rice Bowl with Cilantro Lime Drizzle

May 4, 2015 · 2 Comments

I love bowl food. It’s hearty, filling and mostly healthy depending on ingredients. When I make it at home, it’s always healthy. When I have it out it’s full of inspiration and for the most part a bowl full of good stuff.

I’ve had a love affair with brown rice going on for over 20 years thanks to my mom and since it’s part of the rotation, my husband even likes it. We top it with salty feta cheese & fresh herbs. If brown rice is not your thing try making this bowl with white rice or even quinoa.

I finished it with a Cilantro Lime Drizzle but you can use your favourite dressing if cilantro is not your thing or use a different herb like basil or parsley. If you are on the Wild Rose Detox you have to keep your dressing simple (olive oil, citrus, herbs, s&p). I called this a drizzle as it doesn’t contain vinegar and technically a vinaigrette does.

As always recipes can be changed up to suit your tastes. Add chicken or protein if you want some meat, omit the jalapenos if you don’t like the extra heat!

Moroccan Brown Rice Bowl

Apr 14, 2014 · 2 Comments

Hubs and I are trying to work out more and with that comes feeding your body the right foods for muscle growth. We’ve committed to an event in August that will be testing our endurance, cardio and over all strength. Enough procrastinating, it’s time to start preparing.

Our family loves brown rice. I started feeding it to the kids when they were small(er), they took to it, and still like it to this day. I got hubs to eat it by sprinkling feta on it. Like I do with quinoa, I’ve made up a big batch of brown rice for the week so hubs and I can have it for lunch. Today he is eating his with leftover steak, sliced and warmed in some juices (Au jus) which I think will taste pretty good.

I decide to make myself some brown rice bowls this week. The great thing about this style of eating is you can add anything to it you like. Find a protein, dressing and the veggies or supporting staff (nuts, dried fruit, etc.) you like, and you are ready to build a brown rice bowl. Today I made a Moroccan style dish using Roasted Cauliflower & Chick Peas. I topped it with a home made orange sesame ginger dressing that I admittedly put too much garlic in. There will be no Vampires in this house today. You can make your own dressing or use your favourite store bought. And for the greens, use one or all three (mint, cilantro, spinach) if you have. Remember anything goes. You could even use flat leaf parsley.

This is food for one so double it if you plan on sharing!
