WHO SAYS GLUTEN FREE CANT BE GOOD?


One of the most popular food options at restaurants and events alike, is the "Build Your Own" concept that this delicious rice bowl provides. Adding Freshly Cut-Sauteed veggies to seasoned saffron rice with the ability to add your protein of choice has a simplicity that gives you comfort; yet a flexibility that gives you a custom gourmet feel all in one... It's truly the best of both worlds! Check out the recipe below


Rice Bowl With Cilantro Lime Aioli


Top with the protein of your choosing. our blackened shrimp is pictured above, but this dish is great with Chicken, Steak or even Tofu.
