  • ½ cup walnut meat
  • ½ cup lettuce shredded
  • ½ cup pico de gallo
  • ¼ corn wash and rinsed from the can
  • ¼ black beans wash and rinsed from the can
  • ¼ cup avocado (chopped) or use fresh guacamole
  • fresh cilantro (chopped) to garnish
  • fresh jalapeño (sliced) to garnish
  • 4 tbso cilantro lime dressing optional

Ingredients to make rice

  • 1 cup brown rice cook
  • 2 tablespoon lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped

METHOD
 

  • Prepare your walnut meat and pico de gallo ahead of time, if possible.
  • Cook the brown rice according to the package.
    Note: Make sure to wash and rinse your brown rice before cooking.
  • Once the rice is done cooking, then mix in the lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and chopped cilantro.
  • Assemble: Once all the ingredients are cooked and ready to use, then prepare your bowl. Start with the rice, and then layer over all the remaining toppings of your choice.

NOTES

  • Wash the Rice: Remember to rinse the brown rice thoroughly to remove excess starch, giving you fluffier grains.
  • Season While Warm: Mix seasonings into the rice while warm to enhance absorption.
  • Control the Spice: Adjust the jalapeño peppers and any additional hot sauces to suit your taste.
  • Use a Wide Bowl: A wider bowl helps in arranging and displaying the toppings nicely.
  • Add Citrus: A squeeze of fresh lime over the top adds the perfect refreshing touch.
  • Meal Prep: Prepare the ingredients ahead for quick assembly during busy weekdays.
