Garlic Olive Oil Rice

Your beloved pantry staple is now a powered up, protein-packed, mealtime go-to. With 2x the protein, 35% fewer net carbs, and 5x the fiber, don't even think about calling this a side dish (I mean... it is, but you know what we mean). Infused with garlic thyme oil, this chickpea rice comes with a flavor packet of dried spices and herbs that pack in twice the flavor, while using half the sodium.

  1. Put away your rice cooker. Banza rice is even faster to prepare and the method is simple and easy. We don’t cook the rice in salted water, so it’s a blank canvas to taste and season once it’s in the final dish.
  2. If you’re making fried rice, we recommend cooking the rice as usual and letting it dry out for a few minutes before frying it up! This ensures that it gets extra crispy.
  3. If you’re putting your rice into a salad or using it to meal-prep, we recommend cooking to the lower end of the time range, giving it a quick rinse and tossing with a little olive oil.
  4. We love to use Garlic Olive oil in salads, risottos, or as the base for a rice pilaf or fried rice.
