Your beloved pantry staple is now a powered up, protein-packed, mealtime go-to. Watch out, brown rice! These chickpea-based grains have twice the protein, 35% fewer net carbs, and 5x the fiber. And this classic variety is ready to take on whatever flavor combos you can dream up... so don't be afraid to dress this rice up like it’s about to crash the hottest party in Flavortown.

Directions

Put away your rice cooker. Banza rice is even faster to prepare and the method is simple and easy. We don’t cook the rice in salted water, so it’s a blank canvas to taste and season once it’s in the final dish.
If you’re making fried rice, we recommend cooking the rice as usual and letting it dry out for a few minutes before frying it up! This ensures that it gets extra crispy.
If you’re putting your rice into a salad or using it to meal-prep, we recommend cooking to the lower end of the time range, giving it a quick rinse and tossing with a little olive oil.
