Whether for breakfast, lunch or dinner, rice bowls are tasty and satisfying. We’ve used sashimi-style fish here, but cold-smoked trout, a poached or boiled egg, or cubes of silken tofu would also make great toppings. Have the dressing and toppings ready to go, then cook the rice and put it all together.
