Ingredients
  

1 cup jasmine rice

2 cups water or vegetable broth

1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced

1 ripe avocado, diced

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup

Salt and pepper to taste

Sesame seeds for garnish

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Cook the Rice: Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and water (or vegetable broth) and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for another 10 minutes.

    Prep the Vegetables: While the rice is cooking, prepare the vegetables. Slice the cucumber, dice the avocado, and halve the cherry tomatoes. Thinly slice the red onion and chop the fresh cilantro. Set aside.

      Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce (or tamari), sesame oil, rice vinegar, and honey (or maple syrup). Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

        Assemble the Bowl: Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and divide it evenly among serving bowls. Top each bowl with sliced cucumber, diced avocado, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and chopped cilantro.

          Dress the Bowl: Drizzle the sesame dressing over each bowl, ensuring all toppings are coated. Add sesame seeds for an extra crunch.

            Serve: Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an added zesty kick. Enjoy your refreshing and nutritious bowl!
