CILANTRO LIME WHITE RICE
Don't fear carbs, they fuel you, help you recover and build muscle. As long as you are eating the appropriate amount, carbs should be your best friend! Similar to sweet potatoes, this is another great way to get a 'carb only' food in the mix if your fat or protein is limited.
This is a great, simple rice recipe that goes well with a lot of different proteins. I would highly recommend it in a bowl with taco season flavored ground meat and some guac, YUM! Did someone say homemade Chipotle burrito bowl? Go crazy, add the extra guac!
Ingredients:
1 c white rice
2 c water
1 TBSP olive oil
pinch of salt
Juice of 1 lime
2 TBSP cilantro, finely chopped
2. Put water in a pot and place on stove on high until it begins to boil
3. Add the oil and salt to boiling water and stir
4. Add rice to the pot
5. Once the water reaches a boil again, cover and reduce to low
6. Let simmer for about 15 minutes until all of the water is absorbed
7. I stir my rice only once while it cooks, usually after about 10 minutes
8. Once the water is absorbed, remove the rice from heat
9. Add in the chopped cilantro and lime juice, stir just until it's mixed
