Pesto brown rice bowl with quick-pickled radishes

Pesto Italian cuisine

A grain bowl is the perfect meal solution, giving you a little bit of everything (salty and creamy and crunchy and acidic) all in one dish. Mixing pesto into the base of the rice is a perfect way to add flavor; it makes this bowl so much more than the sum of its parts. The recipe is easy to customize by adding extra protein or swapping in toppings you have on hand. Don’t skip the creamy sauce—it’s good on everything!
