Fast, fit and easy black rice lunch recipe

Fast, fit and easy black rice lunch recipe

Last Friday was all about cravings and desire to cook and create something different and delicious using particular ingredients, like black rice and pumpkin and so on. (The original post you can see here).  The best part of the last weekend was the one that followed – I actually did create and played around with 2 new fit recipes. The first one was with black rice and salmon.

So fast, easy and perfect for a fit weekend lunch that can be made by anyone and will take not more than 30 minutes to prepare everything. No real cooking skills required as well, so no excuses not trying yourself at home.

See recipe below.

 I do like black rice a lot, so this recipe was truly great. My boyfriend already ordered for this weekend as well. Next step would be to find or invent some dessert recipe with black rice.. .hmmm, ideas?

My other fit recipe tried out was made of pumpkin and soon also that one on blog, so stay tuned.

What’s your weekend cooking plan?
