We topped this rice bowl recipe with avocado, carrot, radishes and spinach along with eggs, but whatever vegetables you prefer will be just as delicious.

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil, divided

  • 2 ½ cups cooked brown rice

  • ½ teaspoon salt plus a pinch, divided

  • 2 tablespoons grapeseed or canola oil, divided

  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

  • 1 11-ounce package baby spinach

  • 1 tablespoon lime juice

  • 4 large eggs

  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced

  • 1 cup julienned carrot

  • 4 radishes, thinly sliced

  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced

  • 4 teaspoons Sriracha

Directions

  1. Heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add rice and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until crispy, about 10 minutes. Divide among 4 shallow bowls.

  2. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon grapeseed (or canola) oil and ginger to the pan. Add spinach, in batches, and cook, tossing, until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in lime juice and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Divide among the rice bowls.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
