one cup of zucchini
one cup of green peppers
one big carrot chopped
half a red onion
2 cups of arugula
1/2 cup of cilantra
just a buch of dill cut up
i just put a splash of vinegar
and a tablespoon of italian dressing
i wish i could how to upload a photo but i dont know how.so you could have an idea.. its moslty veggies over the rice..0 -
It sounds devine - rice is one of my weaknesses - I am going to try this ASAP.0
-
If you can't get arugula, can you use something else?0
-
Sure you could also use some baby spinach.. or any kind of green you like..0

I have made something similar using orzo, will have to try the brown rice. Add broccoli florets and try it with balsamic vinegar and a little olive oil for dressing.0

I make something similar, but use couscous. I will often add garbanzo beans and/or low fat feta cheese along with my veggies of choice. Yummy!0
