My favorite lunch takes less five minutes to make and it’s so delicious. I was tempted to stop and pick something up today while I was out, but I knew I had the ingredients for this lunch at home. I start by putting a bag of brown rice in the microwave for four minutes. By the time it’s beeping I have everything else in my bowl and ready to add a scoop of warm rice. It’s comfort food any day of the week.
