Breakfast Rice Bowl

Breakfast Rice Bowl

I was craving a hearty and healthy vegetarian breakfast, so I made this breakfast rice bowl recipe using up some leftover garlic rice in the fridge. I added some roasted tomatoes, asparagus, and a soft-boiled egg. This easy rice bowl recipe pairs nicely with some twisted bacon.

How to Make a Breakfast Rice Bowl

Make the garlic rice. (Click the link for the recipe)

Roast the veggies by placing them on the prepared baking tray, then drizzle the olive oil on top and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.

Place into the oven and roast for about 10 minutes, or until tender.

Meanwhile, prepare the soft-boiled egg by heating an inch of water in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until boiling.

Add the egg, reduce the heat to medium, and cover with a lid.

Let the egg cook for 6 minutes, then remove it from the stove. Side Note: If using a jumbo-sized egg, cook for 6 minutes & 30 seconds, and if using a small egg, cook for 5 minutes & 30 seconds.

Run the small saucepan and egg under cold water until the egg is cool enough to be handled.

Using a knife, lightly crack the top edge of the egg, then gently peel, being careful not to puncture the egg.

Prepare the breakfast rice bowl by placing the warm garlic rice in a shallow bowl, then adding the roasted vegetables and the soft-boiled egg. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.

Serve immediately. Enjoy.

  1. This looks delicious! I love leftover rice and veggies for breakfast. I’ll also experiment with eggs a bit after my cleanse. I couldn’t tolerate them well after my cleanse in January, but I had one the other day, and I did okay. I would love to be able to eat them again!

  2. I was born in Okinawa because my dad was in the Navy. My mom said the Okinawans often had rice for breakfast. I’ve haven’t seen a rice breakfast recipe I wanted to try until this one. Looks fantastic!

  3. Yummy! I’ve actually never had a soft boiled egg before but I love a good runny yolk so I have no doubt I’ll like them. I have to give this a try.

  4. I have never soft boiled an egg. Well, intentionally anyway. I did a sous vide version because I needed hard boiled eggs but was doing 30 0ther things. They turned out soft boiled. Hard to put diced soft boiled eggs in potato salad.

  5. Don’t you hate it when you wake up that early and can’t get back to sleep? I never think to get up and cook, but I need to remedy that! This looks so delicious, Pam!
