High Protein High Fiber Rice Recipe

• total time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

1 cup rice (white or brown)

½ cup lentils (red cook fastest, green/brown take longer)

½ cup quinoa (rinsed well)

3 cups water

Pinch of salt (optional)

Directions

Rinse the rice, lentils, and quinoa thoroughly until water runs mostly clear.

Add all grains to your rice cooker.

Pour in 3 cups of water. Add salt if desired.

Close the lid and cook on the regular rice setting.

Once done, let it sit in “warm” mode for 10 minutes to finish steaming.

Fluff with a fork and serve hot.

Tips:

For extra flavor, cook with low-sodium vegetable broth instead of water.

Add a bay leaf, cumin, or garlic for a savory boost.

Great as a base for stir-fries, curries, or a side to grilled fish/chicken.
