Black rice makes an incredibly tasty, healthy and nutritious addition to any dish.

• Black rice contains less calories and carbohydrates than other types of rice. It is also higher in protein
• Its dark colour indicates the presence of a powerful antioxidant called anthocyanin, of which it contains more  of than any other coloured grain.
• Black rice is rich in fibre, which keeps you fuller for longer and assists with maintaining a healthy body weight.
• It has a delicious nutty flavour, and Julie’s beef burrito bowl is the perfect way to incorporate it into your diet.
