This dish is a staple in the Mission Lean diet because it’s based around rice, which is simple to cook and can be found anywhere.
The basis is a portion of rice for sustained energy. Then you can add on some greens and some veggies. If you want to add a piece of chicken or fish for extra protein or flavor.. go ahead!
Avocado is optional as well, but serves as an amazing way to add flavor to the whole dish.
