Healthy Rice Bowl with Yogurt Poppy Seed Dressing

As many of us are becoming more health-conscious these days, we are also paying more attention to what we eat. Eating out while at work is no longer that bad with all the healthy food joints sprouting up around Singapore especially in the CBD area. We are indeed so spoilt for choices. From hearty soup and salad to wholesome poke or rice bowl, there is simply no more room for excuses. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Healthy Rice Bowl with Yogurt Poppy Seed Dressing

Endless Possibilities – Every Day A Different Bowl

One good thing about making such a rice bowl at home is that you can basically use any ingredient you like. There are endless combinations – whatever you can think of. What I have used in this recipe are just a few to name.

And if you ever run out of ideas, I have a suggestion. Go to the websites of those poke bowl or salad places and check out their menus that have extensive lists of ingredients. You can easily assemble a different bowl for each day. ๐Ÿ˜†

For this recipe, I also made a healthy dressing that’s tangy and creamy with extra textural crunch from red bell peppers and poppy seeds. Give it a try! ๐Ÿ˜‰

With a kitchen towel, pat the steak dry and rub it with sunflower oil.
