Sardine and Brown Rice Summer Bowl

Surprise… SARDINES!! It’s not even a surprise anymore is it? I’m sorry I know my obsession is a little over the top but when you mix them with things you really forget that they are even in there. This recipe has a sort of asian feel with the coconut aminos, ginger, and cumin.

And, with inflammation bashing superstar turmeric, and side kick black pepper for increased absorption, your body will thank you the rest of the week.

If you REALLY HATE sardines, then swap them out for some organic chicken or black beans if you want to keep an all veggie vibe.
