There is something to be said for simplicity.
When it comes to food we enjoy in our house, it doesn't get more basic than a big bowl of hearty rice topped with some flavorful add-ins.
Not only is rice the most widely consumed staple food in the world, it goes well with just about anything.
My son LOVES it when we cook anything with an Asian flair - Chinese, Japanese, or even a Vietnamese Noodle Soup or some yummy Thai curry. He can even eat with chopsticks, which tends to surprise the servers when we go out to eat! 😀
Making Rice Bowls
Rice bowls are such easy recipes to throw together. You hardly need a recipe, as you can really throw in whatever flavorful toppings suit your fancy.
For a tasty twist on the basic recipe below, you can try using this Chicken Fried Rice as a base for your bowl, Or check out this delicious Pineapple Fried Rice for an even more flavorful spin.
No matter what you toss in, a bowl full of rice, veggies and some flavorful meat (or tofu!) - it's going to be good.
