Avocado Rice Bowl

An easy and adaptable lunch or dinner for all of you who are running on a busy schedule! We love the versatility of this meal – you can swap the eggs for another protein source like chickpeas, beans, tofu, or chicken.

(Makes 1 serving)

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs (or swap another protein source like chickpeas)
  • ¼ cup short grain rice
  • ¼ an avocado
  • 1 cup chopped kale
  • ¼ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ¼ cup edamame soybeans shelled
  • Top with everything but the bagel seasoning

Instructions

  1. Pour ¼ cup of uncooked short grain rice into a pot with ½ cup water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cover. Let simmer for 45 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.
  2. While the rice is cooking, heat the soybeans in the microwave (I usually buy a frozen bag from trader joes).
  3. Saute the kale in a pan with a drizzle of olive oil until crunchy. Once the kale is done, set aside.
  4. Cut up ¼ of an avocado into slices. If tomatoes are not sliced, slice those too.
  5. Once everything is done cooking, cook up 2 fried eggs in a pan.
  6. Now throw everything into a bowl and season with everything but the bagel seasoning

Note: The rice can be cooked in advance and in bigger portions to save time!
