Vegetable Fried Brown Rice with Egg
Healthy, because
Even smarter
With fried rice with vegetables, only good things come on the plate: Since brown rice is not peeled, silver skin and sprouts are preserved. This provides extra vitamins, minerals and fibre. Peas have plenty of B vitamins in their luggage, while eggs provide a good deal of protein power. And carrots do our skin good thanks to provitamin A.
The recipe for the fried rice with vegetables can be adapted as desired: Red peppers in strips bring colour and vitamin C into play, while fresh apple cubes and raisins provide the special twist.
Care should be taken with the bean sprouts: The sprouts, rich in vital substances, require absolute hygiene, which is why they should always be fresh and washed thoroughly before consumption.
