Here’s why this dish is a must-add to your lunch rotation:
Quinoa & Brown Rice: You can grab any quick ready made pack in the rice section and fry in minutes. These grains form the foundation of the dish, combining high-quality plant-based protein with complex carbohydrates.
Quinoa is rich in magnesium and iron, supporting muscle function and energy production, while brown rice provides sustained energy and promotes digestive health.
Eggs: You could also whisk up two eggs and fry tyhis before your rice instead of boiled eggs. Eggs, are a powerhouse of high-quality protein, choline for brain health, and essential vitamins like B12. They also provide a satisfying creaminess that makes this dish irresistible.
Tamari: A gluten-free soy sauce alternative, tamari enhances the flavor without the gluten or additives of regular soy sauce. It also contains small amounts of manganese, which supports bone health and metabolism.
Green Vegetables: Broccoli, snap peas, spinach, rocket or kale are ideal additions. They’re brimming with fiber, antioxidants, and chlorophyll, aiding detoxification and alkalising your body.
You can then eat as it is or add optional toppings:

Hummus
Sunflower seeds
