Rainy Day Rice Bowl

Pre-cooked rice, ground turkey, frozen veg. The dinner you make instead of taking three kids to the grocery store in the rain.

By Saturday we desperately need groceries.

It poured rain all day today though and I couldn’t bring myself to take all three kids to the store. Ended up throwing together dinner with stuff we had on hand.

Make it yours

  • Any ground meat: Turkey is what I had. Chicken, beef or pork all work the same way.
  • Skip the sriracha for the kids: Serve theirs first, then add the heat to yours.
