Recipe: Lemon Feta Broccoli Rice

Recipe: Lemon Feta Broccoli Rice

I love carbs just as much as the next person. Full-flour pasta, Mexican rice, pizza as far as the eye can see—this is heaven, people. But, unfortunately, I live in the real world, and I’ve gotta work in veggies more often than carbs.

That’s why I’m obsessed with this Lemon Feta Broccoli Rice; it’s made with only seven ingredients, including salt and pepper, and can be put together in a dozen minutes or less. Enjoy it as a side dish, or serve it with some boiled eggs or pita + hummus for the full shebang. You might even top it with a bit of tzatziki for an extra kick. Enjoy!
