Ingredients

  • ½ cup (90 g) brown rice (uncooked)
  • 1 cup (125 g) green beans, fresh
  • ¾ cup (110 g) peas, frozen
  • 1 ball low fat mozzarella (you can also use regular if you prefer) (1 ball = 125g/4.5oz)
  • 20 leaves basil, fresh
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 tbsp olives (black)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Cook the brown rice according to package instructions.
  • Blanch the green beans. This means heat up a pot with really salty water. Once it’s boiling like crazy throw in the beans. Cook them for about 3-5 minutes, so they don’t ‘squeak’ anymore. 
  • Throw the peas in for just a few seconds at the end. Then cool everything down as fast as you can.The best way to do this is to get a bowl with cold water and some ice cubes.
  • Boil the eggs for 6 minutes. Also cool them down and then peel the skin off when they’re lukewarm.
  • Rip the mozzarella into pieces and halve the eggs.
  • Cut the beans roughly in half, mix in a bowl with the peas and sprinkle with a bit of
    salt, pepper, olive oil. Chop the basil and add that too.
  • Mix everything together, except the eggs. Serve with brown rice, and finish with the eggs on top. Done!
