SIMPLE WILD RICE VEGGIES AND EGG

So yes, the title is not the most creative title, but this meal is simple and delicious.  It’s also artistically appealing in my opinion because of all the colours coming together. Of course there may have been some integral filters on it but it’s not far off from the actual thing. This is another meal that is pretty healthy in my onion especially the wild rice filled with complex carbs.

For rice, I bought a whole bag of mixed rice and quinoa from Costco but you can definitely use wild rice, and or brown rice, and quinoa or a mix of the healthy rice together (just not white rice).

I made the rice with a rice cooker, but if you don’t have one, just rinse 1 cup of rice and add 3-4 cups of water and let it cook covered for about 40-45 minutes. After it’s done cooking and there’s extra water left over, you should drain it and voila.

1. Fill a medium pot with enough water to boil your egg and put your egg in the pot and turn the heat on high for about 7-9 minutes until your egg is fully cooked. You can turn off your stove earlier if you would like your egg less cooked.

2. Set your cooked rice aside and keep it covered and warm. Now chop up your vegetables into small chunks. And oil your pan and turn your heat on high.

3. When your pan is hot, pour your vegetables in and add seasoning. Not too much because you’re going to add soy sauce which will be salty. For seasoning, I used a bit of Montreal steak seasoning (it’s not steak but the seasoning is still good) but you can just season with salt and pepper.

4. Once you've add the seasoning, add in your soy sauce a little at a time and make sure to taste it so it doesn’t get too salty. If it does, just add in some water.

5. Turn off your heat once your vegetables are soft and ready to eat. Now cut your avocado and you’re ready to serve.

*This is how I served it, I scooped some rice, placed my vegetables on one side, and cut my egg horizontally into flat pieces and set it on top of everything and add the pieces of avocado beside the egg and there you have it. A pretty appetizing looking meal that tastes good at the same time!
