Easy Scallion Rice Recipe- Gluten Free, Vegan, Soy Free


I am always looking for things to do with leftover rice. Last week I had some rice that not only was left over, it was starting to dry out. I needed to make a starchy dish for a meal, and since I had a lot of scallions at home, I decided to check the internet to see if a dish such as scallion rice exists, and what types of ingredients people usually put in it. I struck gold and found so many different examples, and this recipe is what I put together inspired by all those recipes. It has very few ingredients but the taste is complex and delicious and it was such a hit. I will definitely be making this again and again. Did I mention that it is super easy and allergy friendly and vegan and gluten free and just all around a good recipe?

I highly recommend this recipe.

  1. I want to try this but not too sure about the ginger. I consider that to be a spicy flavor and I don't do well with spicy stuff.
