My Plate: Meat & Rice Bowl

On My Plate (OMP) is a series in which I share with you what I’m eating. It features things put together because I need to clean out the fridge or pantry; things made in a hurry; making do with what is there; and things I have seen, heard, or read about and decided to give a try (that are not complicated). It is also about what I am having when I don’t feel like cooking.

Rice bowls are nothing new. They can be found all around the world, and simply put, they are bowls of grains of some sort (rice is popular), that is topped with stuff. Every day when we cook rice and veggies, curries and stews and put them together, they are essentially rice bowls, but we use plates. Today, however, I am sharing with you the type of rice bowl that is easy to put together and really celebrates the use of bits and pieces and leftovers.
