Lentil Quinoa Rice is simple and balanced.
Lentils and quinoa add fiber and protein to this lentil and rice recipe. (Stovetop and rice cooker methods.) Better for blood glucose control!
Nutrition Note: 270 calories of plain cooked white rice has about 5 grams of protein and around 1 gram of fiber. This rice with lentils and quinoa recipe delivers 10 grams of protein and 8 grams of fiber for the same calories—a more balanced and nutrient-dense choice.

Arsenic and rice is a real concern, but there are ways to reduce it by up to 70%. Rice is also a high glycemic food. We’re going to make it much more blood glucose friendly. First off, I choose white rice over brown because it’s significantly lower in arsenic. And while brown rice has slightly more fiber, we’re going to add that back with lentils and quinoa, which also reduces the overall glycemic impact of rice. Be sure to also choose a brand of rice that’s tested for arsenic. I created a free PDF with brands lower in arsenic and tips. Make a big batch of this delicious rice and freeze it to increase resistance starch.

Wow people have been eating rice for years! Soak rice in water few drops
of vinegar to clean. Pray over your food 🍲 ❤
Don’t cook rice with arsenic! Thats a very bad recipe!! Nonna never did that.
Is that a rice cooker or another appliance?
How do you clean your greens? Yesterday I got a kale packet from Trader Joe’s and washed it and left it on my counter to dry a bit before I store it in fridge. Some time later, I saw tiny insects on the leaves- 😢😢😢 I threw it out
Rice only from Asia. CA and OR have strict regulations.
Wow. We Love Jasmine rice, Black rice and wild Rice. Just bought some purple rice at the Market last week. 💜🍚 🌾🙏🏾
You could also try boiling the rice for a few minutes, then dumping the water out, quickly rincing it and then finish cooking the rice in fresh water. It might not get you optimal texture but it does significantly reduce the arsenic content
You are so awesome, I'm incredibly grateful for you and your wonderful content. We are all so lucky to receive your recipes, that boost health, taste good and are simple to prepare. Thank you, thank you! ❤❤
not all rice has arsenic, it depends on where it grown
Thank you. I'm also trying to find healthy seasonings I see you use bay leaves
Why does rice have arsenic ? Rice is a staple in many countries. 😮
I think it’s time to buy a rice cooker
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Please Share Container for Pickled Red Onions
I want to thank you for sharing your Chunky Chia Seed Pudding.❤ I make it every day, and it is fighting my sweet tooth cravings while I'm trying to lose weight❤
I read that rice kept in the fridge overnight will give you terrible food poisoning. Is this true?
Arsenic lol….
70% of humanity eat rice daily. We'll be fine.
american rice is highest in arsenic
Thank you from the Diabetes Community❤
Rinse it til water runs clearer before cooking
arsenic in rice is NOT a concerrn.
Soaking the raw rice in warm water, for a couple of hours. Helps the body absorb more of the nutrients when the rice is cooked and eaten.
The addition of quinoa and lentils increases the fibre of the cooked rice.
pickled red onions ensures a lovely crunch to the meal.
Never knew about arsenic being in rice….
Arsenic is also in many other seeds like apple seeds. You will be fine. The amounts are so small that NOTHING can happen to you, and this video is just making people be more fearful of something so safe as rice.
Ce buuuun ❤
Where is the free PDF for brands that are low in arsenic
Hello where can i buy that red onion container please..
Surely organic rice doesn't have arsenic. I always start by rinsing it with boiling water.
I like the container where you kept the pickled onions
I recently went to the doctor and he says my blood pressure is quite elevated, but not quite at the point where I need medication. I've decided to follow some of your advice to try help lower my levels and potentially prevent being put onto chronic medication, such as eating more fibre, limiting salt and sugar intake and focusing on healthier natural fats! thank you for everything you do! ❤
is it something to really worry about? when you think of all of the Asian countries that eat rice and they are fine
Can you explain how white rice is better than brown, outside of the reasons given in this video?
Wow … I had no idea
Wash your rice before you cook it. This reduces the arsenic load.
