This easy veggie rice bowl is a quick and flavourful lunch or dinner! It is comprised of simple, natural ingredients that you most likely already have in your pantry, fridge and freezer. This is a great recipe to use for meal prepping for the week ahead, since you can make many containers full with ease. I would actually recommend making more than one serving, for convenience-sake.
I already had the steamed carrots and cooked rice in my fridge as well as frozen peas in the freezer, when making this dish. So assembling the meal was very quick! Adding protein (meat/seafood) would take a little longer due to cook time, but if you don’t have the time this dish is filling and flavourful enough without the addition of meat.
