Feel good food

This is feel good food for me. I could eat it almost everyday for  breakfast, lunch and dinner. The best part is you can change it up in so many ways, you can change the protein; poultry, fish, tofu, tempeh, meat...you can change the veggies; grated red beet is among my favorites.

Basically this is a plate that consists of 3 main ingredients:

  1. Brown rice or quinoa
  2. Raw vegetables which could be grated carrot or as above tomatoes, parsley and avocado. 
  3. Protein
I also like to add some sort of seeds or nuts just to add that little extra feature. I love to create a light soy based dressing so that you get some moisture into play. Avocado always seems to make it's way onto this dish, it just adds this heavenly creaminess and knowing that its healthy, full of good oils & fats make it a perfect addition to this 'healthy plate'. 

Here are some various ways I have put this plate together: 


Sometimes just a fried egg ontop of the brown rice with some sprinkles of seaweed flakes or ripped seaweed sushi paper is enough to complete the plate.


I always feel satisfied after this dish, it fulfills on so many levels.
