TWO BROOKS MORNING MANNA RICE BOWL

This a simple, healthy, and nutritious way to treat your children and yourself to morning victuals that are high energy and low calorie. As we say on our place, “this food will hold you up for a while”. Our brown rice’s slowly released, high resistant starch carbohydrates, along with the egg’s protein last through the ante meridiem for a more productive morning. Fiber is provided by the brown rice and spinach, and wasabi peas add a little crunch and flavor. One can flexibly use leftover cold rice, leftover warmed rice, or freshly cooked rice; if serving cold, you may wish to use our Missimati Fragrant Brown Rice. You can poach your eggs, scramble your eggs, or serve them over easy. You can add crumbled bacon, sausage, or diced ham if you need a meat fix. It is especially nice drizzled with honey, but you may prefer a smattering of grated cheese. This is adaptable morning manna.
