Peri Peri Rice Bowl

MACROS

100 C / 15 F / 42 P

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

FOR THE BASE:

  • White basmati rice (100g uncooked)

  • Frozen peas and carrots (85g)

  • Robertson’s spice for rice (a mixture of turmeric, paprika, salt, etc.)

ON TOP:

  • Protein of choice [I used 85g cooked chicken and shrimp]

  • Lettuce

  • Tomato

  • Avocado (50g)

  • Nando’s Peri Peri Sauce

HOW TO:

  1. Cook your rice as per the instructions. My preferred method is in a rice cooker.

  2. Spice protein and cook. Depending on what you use, your method of cooking will differ. For me: I typically cook most of my meat in a pan over the stove.

  3. Wash and cut your veggies for the toppings. Cube your avocado.

  4. Defrost your peas and carrots in the microwave. When the rice is done, stir them into the rice and add your seasoning.

  5. Once everything has been prepped and cooked, you’re ready to assemble! Rice at the bottom, toppings on top of that. Drizzle with Nando’s sauce!

  6. Before you take a bite, take a picture for me to see! Enjoy :)

BONUS TIPS

  • The macros shown are for the rice bowl with 85g cooked chicken. Without the chicken, it drops to 100C / 10F / 15P. Keep this in mind when changing the meat.

  • White rice can be substituted for brown rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice depending on your particular tastes and goals.

  • I am aware that Spice for Rice is not a very commonly found spice. You can substitute it for your own mix of turmeric, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt.

  • Nando’s Peri Peri MEDIUM is my favorite, but feel free to use whichever sauce you like.
