Vegan RightRice
This recipe is one pot, which makes it incredibly easy. Bonus! You’ll have less dishes to do after you make it. Rice is one of the most common ingredients and sides in Asian food, and thankfully, it’s super versatile and perfect for a vegan, plant based diet. What is the best rice to use? I used RightRice for this recipe. RightRice is a low carb alternative to regular rice and it’s made with vegetables. I love when I can get the added benefits of more veggies into my diet. The line of rice comes in original, lemon pepper, Spanish and garlic herb flavours, and includes ingredients such as lentils, chickpeas, and green peas. What’s great about RightRice is that it contains almost 40% less net carbs than traditional white rice. RightRice also provides twice as much protein, and five times as much fiber than your plain white rice. With most American adults not getting enough protein and fiber, this is a perfect way to get in a serving to your vegan diet.
Overall this recipe makes for a tasty side dish or a main course. This recipe is super simple, jam packed with flavour and nutrients, plus, your guests will think you spent hours making it when really you whipped it up in a flash.
