Notes

After each step, taste it and make sure you’re happy with the flavors and if you want to add a bit more, add it! Just remember, you can’t remove it once you’ve added it so if you’re unsure of an ingredient, add a little at a time. Swap cod for salmon or chicken Swap asparagus for other greens Use any other rice or a microwaveable packet for ease!
