Big, bountiful bowls are all the rage, and it’s easy to see why. A bowl in this context is a basically an artful arrangement of veggies and sometimes protein on a bed of grains or noodles. It’s not just a big bowlful of one dish, where every bit is the same as another. It’s a little of this and a little of that, adding up to a feast for the eyes as well as the palate. This delightful Veggie Sushi Rice Bowl tastes like your favorite vegetable sushi, but without the fuss and mess of the rolling and cutting. It’s a great way to use leftover cooked rice and a nice combo of cooked and raw.
