This rice bowl is one of our go-to meals when we're craving something light. It's easy to make, and mango, ginger & basil make it wonderfully refreshing.
Author: Jeanine Donofrio
Recipe type: Main dish
Serves: 2
Ingredients
- 2 handfuls snap peas, strings removed
- 1 to 2 cups cooked short grain white rice*
- 2 cups shredded green cabbage
- 1 small carrot, sliced into very thin coins
- ½ English cucumber, thinly sliced into coins
- 1 small ripe ataulfo mango, diced
- ½ cup cooked black beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons pickled ginger
- ¼ cup thinly sliced fresh basil
- ¼ cup toasted peanuts, optional
- Sprinkle of sesame seeds, optional
- ¼ to ½ avocado, optional
Dressing
- 2 tablespoons tamari, more for serving
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons cane sugar
- ½ teaspoon sriracha, more for serving
Instructions
- Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the tamari, vinegar, lime juice, garlic, cane sugar, and sriracha.
- Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil and place a bowl of ice water nearby. Blanch the snap peas by placing them in the boiling water for 1½ minutes, then scoop them into the ice water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, drain, pat dry, and chop.
- Assemble the bowls with the rice, shredded cabbage, carrot, cucumber, mango, black beans, pickled ginger, and basil. Top with the toasted peanuts, sesame seeds, and avocado, if using. Drizzle bowls with half the dressing and serve the rest on the side along with tamari and sriracha, if desired.
Notes
*depending on how much rice you like in your bowls - I like ½ cup in mine, my husband Jack prefers 1 cup in his.
To make it in this week's meal plan:
- make double the amount of rice
- save the remaining green cabbage
- save the remaining ½ cucumber
- get a total of 3 mangoes
- save 1 cup extra black beans (ie, the rest of the can)

Seasoned Rice Stuffing
Rice stuffing for Thanksgiving? You better believe this will become a fast favorite. Rather than deal with soggy breadcrumb-based stuffing, whip up this flavorful and tender rice stuffing for your Thanksgiving turkey, chicken or to eat on its own. I am originally from Panamá, and we ate rice at almost every single meal — and Thanksgiving was no exception when we moved to the U.S. Rice stuffing is great for those with gluten sensitivities or intolerances — or if you happen to be out of breadcrumbs or cubes and need to put something on your Thanksgiving table fast.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 yellow onion, peeled and finely chopped
- 3 cups water
- 2 teaspoons dried dill
- 2 teaspoons sazón, adobo or poultry seasoning
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley, sage or freshly chopped cilantro
- freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons chicken bouillon, or to taste
- 1½ cups long grain white rice
Preparation
- Heat butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally until onion has softened and is translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add water, dill, sazón, adobo or poultry seasoning, parsley, sage or cilantro, ground black pepper, chicken bouillon and rice; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until water is absorbed and rice is just slightly undercooked, 12 to 14 minutes.
- Stir, taste and adjust seasonings if desired. Cool completely before using to stuff turkey or chicken.

Garlic Parmesan Rice
Ingredients Needed For Rice Recipe
- Butter
- Olive Oil
- Jasmine Rice – my preferred type of rice, but you can also use any long grain white rice
- Garlic Salt
- Dried Parsley
- Water
- Milk
- Parmesan Cheese
Tips for Making Garlic Parmesan Rice in a skillet:
- My favorite type of rice to use for skillet rice is Jasmine, which is a long grain white rice.
- For best texture rinse the rice with water prior to toasting in the skillet. This will reduce the amount of stickiness you get when it’s finished cooking.
- To get the most flavor out of your rice, start by toasting the rice in the skillet before adding any wet ingredients to the pan.
- I like this rice so much because it’s a little creamy, super flavorful, and ultra simple to make. You can increase or decrease the amount of garlic flavor by adjusting that to taste.
Instructions
- Add 2 tbsp butter and olive oil to a pan over medium heat. Add rice, garlic salt and parsley and toast rice until just lightly browned.
- Add in water and 1/2 cup milk. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally until rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
- Stir in the remaining 2 tbsp butter, 1/2 cup milk and parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy warm.

HOW TO MAKE DIRTY RICE IN 3 EASY STEPS!
Dirty Rice is an easy recipe to make in just 30 minutes and it only takes one pot! You gotta love that!
- Brown meat, drain excess grease. Add vegetables and sauté until tender.
- Add in seasonings, rice and chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Lower the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, until rice is cooked. Serve!
CAJUN SEASONING
Cajun seasoning is an important addition to this recipe, as it is the main spice used. I personally prefer to use Slap Ya Mama Cajun Seasoning as it’s my families personal favorite. Another great option is Tony Chachere’s Creole Seasoning.
If you do not have either option on hand, you can try using seasoning salt or even Old Bay seasoning. If you use one of these substitutions, I would recommend tasting the final dish and possibly adding some additional cayenne pepper to bump up the heat.
