🥣 White Bean Rice Bowl with Miso & Smoked Salmon

A GLP-1–friendly pantry meal with a punch of flavor.

This nourishing bowl is rich in fiber and protein, with a touch of healthy fat and spice to keep things interesting. I love this as a quick lunch or a weeknight dinner when I want something satisfying but still aligned with my GLP-1 goals.

🛒 Ingredients (serves 2)

• 1 cup cooked white beans (cannellini or great northern)

• 1 cup cooked brown or white rice (brown is more blood-sugar friendly)

• 1 tablespoon white miso paste

• 1 tin Fishwife Smoked Atlantic Salmon with Sichuan Chili Crisp or your favorite smoked salmon

• 1 cup fresh arugula

• 1 teaspoon olive oil (optional, for arugula)

• ½ teaspoon lemon juice (optional, for arugula)

🥄 Instructions

1. Warm the base: In a small saucepan over low heat, stir together the white beans and rice. Add a splash of water if needed. Stir in the miso paste until fully incorporated and warm through.

2. Plate it up: Divide the miso bean and rice mixture between two bowls.

3. Add the salmon: Gently flake the Fishwife smoked salmon over each bowl. Drizzle any extra chili crisp oil from the tin right on top—don’t waste that flavor!

4. Top with greens: Toss arugula with olive oil and a bit of lemon juice (or leave it plain for peppery bite) and pile it on top of the bowl for a fresh contrast.

5. Serve warm or room temp, with a spoon and maybe a cozy blanket.

💡 GLP-1 Friendly Notes

• High in fiber from the beans and greens, helping you stay fuller longer.

• Protein-packed thanks to the beans and salmon.

• Healthy fats from the salmon and olive oil support satiety.

• Miso adds flavor without needing much salt or fat
