    I'm obsessed with these salmon rice bowls. You probably should be, too.

    They're filling but not loaded with carbs or fats or processed things - perfect for anyone who's trying to stick to a "healthy eating in 2014" resolution. Plus, um, they're delicious.

    OH , ALSO! The best part: these are insanely easy to make. Cook some rice, steam some broccoli (or green beans or spinach or whatever you've got in the fridge!) bake some salmon, slather the whole thing in sauce. Bam! Done.

    I like to cook big batches of rice and keep it in the fridge all week, then scoop some out to throw into stir fry or salmon bowls whenever the mood strikes. You could really make all the components in advance, actually - just keep them separate in the fridge until you're ready to eat, then throw them all together for a quick lunch or dinner.

    Also, a note: the sauce makes enough for a light coat over all of the food. If you like things a little saucier, double the recipe for twice the orange-y, teriyaki-y goodness. Enjoy!
