I have an undeniable love for rice. It’s the most basic (some say bland) ingredient yet I’ll never tire of any bite. And although my favorite may be the less-healthy white, I’ve taught my taste buds to crave brown. One of the reasons it’s a constant in our household is the fact that rice provides one easy base layer for grander dishes. This recently discovered fried egg avocado rice bowl now tops my list of favorite foods. The contrasting textures, acidic bursts, and pops of color offer heartiness that keeps me full for hours. See recipe details below.
