Not Breakfast Salad

Breakfast rice, nuts & fruits. I've adapted this from The French Women Don't Get Fat Cookbook. The original calls for protein rich quinoa, but I opt for brown rice. Both options are gluten free and the nuts add protein regardless. Eat before a beach holiday or after splitting a bottle of wine (plus some really rocking cheese biscuits) for dinner.

1 cup cooked brown rice, hot

1 small dab butter

1 splash milk

1 squeeze lemon juice

6-7 chopped dried apricots

Small handful dried cranberries

2 tablespoons toasted mixed nuts (here it is almonds)

Sprinkle of salt, optional

Combine & dine – B
