40+ Savory & Sweet Rice Recipes » The Nutrition Adventure

From breakfast to dinner to dessert, here’s 40+ Savory & Sweet Rice Recipes to enjoy at home!

Rice is a staple in many diets around the world, and for good reason. Not only is rice widely available, it’s also a budget-friendly grain, shelf-stable, satisfying, and nutritious.

There are numerous varieties of rice, some offering more fiber or vitamins than others, but all rice offers complex carbohydrates, protein, fiber, and more than 15 vitamins and minerals. Different types of rice vary in texture, flavor, and color, which is why certain recipes work best with specific types of rice. For example, with Indian cuisine, basmati rice is typically used and is a light and fluffy rice. Some types of rice, like brown, wild, black and red rice, have a nutty flavor and are a little bit chewier because they contain more fiber. These varieties of rice work well as a base for bowls topped with cooked veggies and protein, or as a filling for stuffed squash recipes.

Is Rice Gluten-Free? 

Yes, it is! If you have celiac disease or a gluten intolerance/sensitivity, rice is an excellent food to include in the diet.
