What's Great About It:

These rice bowls are quick and easy to prepare and are a great way to get two serves of vegetables in at lunch or dinnertime. Salmon or beef would both work well in place of chicken, and feel free to swap out any of the vegetables for what you have at home – cherry tomatoes, red cabbage, corn or beetroot would all go well!
