Vegetables – You can use the vegetables you like best or the ones that are left in the fridge. Here it is edamame beans, pointed cabbage, and carrots, but it’s only your imagination that sets the limit.
Rice – Here is the regular white rice, but brown rice or cauliflower rice is also really nice in a salmon bowl.
