Hi I'm trying to eat healthier so I bought a big bag of rice and vegetables and am going to eat rice/veggies for a meal a day. My doctor told me to avoid sodium as much as I can due to some serious health complications I'm experiencing. What is a good way to dress up simple rice and veggies that isn't soy sauce?
>>
>>8801511
Make vegetable stock using your spare veg and cook it all in that?

Also you're never going to stick with this you should be less lazy about your plan and come up with a lot of different meals you can do.
>>
You picked up the wrong things to dress up without sodium unless you have atypical taste. There are other foods you can get away with little to no salt.

roasted sesame seeds
roasted sunflower seeds
nigella sativa seeds
fresh herbs and spices like thyme, coriander or
parsly
some fresh veggies
some kind of sauce:
you should roast your veggies instead of cooking them and add tomatosauce, garlic, onion,.....
>>
Herbs and spices of course
I also recommend sugar or sweet-sour sauce based on sugar and acid (no oils, no salt), unless you have trouble controlling your caloric intake. Even ketchup works
>>
I roast my vegetables in black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, turmeric, chili powder, smoked paprika, and thyme.. and salt, but only a very light sprinkle, you could probably get away with not having any since I've forgotten it a few times an didn't really notice.

I put the chopped veg in a bowl with a lid, pour the spices in with a little olive oil, and shake it up until its all coated.

I usually have it with eggs and/or cottage cheese.. but I'm sure it would be good with rice too.
If you don't like plain rice, do as >>8801521 said and cook it with stock.. but make sure to check the sodium levels in the stock first of course.


They do make low-sodium soy sauce though...
>>
>>8801563
Cottage cheese has more salt than 99% of foods
>>
>>8801511
Easy!
>fresh lemon juice and zest
>fresh herbs (chives and parsley will have the freshest taste)
>black pepper, paprika, or cayenne
>garlic
>salt free seasoning blends like Mrs. Dash
>cooking the rice in no salt added broth

Lemon juice and zest is your best friend. So is vinegar.
>>
sodium doesn't exist as long as you don't read how much sodium there is in a meal
>>
>>8801511
You did buy unenriched rice didn't you?
If not you'll just keep getting sicker.
>>
>>8801511

Enjoy becoming an even bigger fat ass unless you eat chink-sized proportions of rice (less than a regular human child)
>>
>>8801511
garlic+blackpepper+lemon+olive oil. get well soon.
>>
>>8801606
So what?
>>
>>8801511
>What is a good way to dress up simple rice and veggies that isn't soy sauce?

Garlic, ginger, chili's.
>>
>>8802164
So literally the entire point of this is to avoid sodium?
>>
>>8801550
Rice is ok if it's brown.

White rice, on the other hand, is little better than white bread.
>>
Fry up some onions, and mix it all together with some Sriracha
>>
>>8802275
White rice has basically no sodium compared to bread though. I don't see the issue.
>>
>>8801511
Throw out the rice and get brown rice and other whole grains. A serving of broccoli is a pound btw.
>>
Protip: add some beans to that meal.

Beans have a lot of fibre so they'll help you keep full, also beans + rice forms a complete protein so you'll be getting much more protein than just eating rice on its own.
>>
>>8801511
Pick up a vinegar (rice wine, apple cider, balsamic, sherry, etc).

Use this stuff. It's the GOAT

My fellow umber associate.

Really though, aromat is great. It's not the biggest tin in the world, but it's surprisingly economical too.
>>
>>8801550
Why isn't rice healthy?? !
>>
Add salt
>>
>>8802248

So don't eat it with cottage cheese then retard.
>>
>>8801511
Impossible. Salt is the most important seasoning and everything tastes like crap without it
>>
>>8801731
What's wrong with enriched rice?
>>
Terrayucca sauce is great, also gourmet sauce from Costco
>>
>>8801550
arsenic?
>>
>>8801511
chili flakes
ground pepper
hot sauce
>>
>>8801550
y do u lie?

>and everything tastes like crap without it
Sounds like your taste buds are crippled by decades of eating microwaved shitfood.

Cooking with a minimum of salt rewards you with more distinct flavors of each used ingredient.
Using all these here >>8801716 and some spices like curry and chilly make for an amazing meal without using much or any salt.
>>

>enriched rice?
what's that?

You men cultually enriched ice?
like brown rice?
>>
>>8801511
>rice
>healthy
>eating only rice and veggies

You're going to be miserable and unhealthy, good luck OP.
>>
>>8805170
Maybe you could cultually enrich yourself a bit before posting here.
>>
rice is not healthy. you are better off eating wheat bread. Rice will give you major constipation, and it is full of arsenic.
>>
Starch hierarchy
Beans > Potato >>>>>>>>> Bread >= Rice
>>
Caramelized onions
Roasted garlic
Citrus or vinegar-based dressing
Hot sauce (can make your own to control the sodium content)

I have brown rice and mixed vegetables (+ beans or chicken) for dinner almost every night. These toppings have been my go-to choices.
>>
>>8801511
You can get bacon scraps for 1/4 or less of the price of strips.

Even really high quality bacon.

It's good stuff for flavoring things, beats the fuck out of paying $11 per pound, and goes really good in rice with broccoli.
