Sides & Veggies

Basmati rice cooked with turmeric for color and subtle earthiness. Use water or bone broth depending on what you have—both work.

Peppery arugula with fresh vegetables, something creamy, and a simple lemon dressing. Light but satisfying, and easy to adapt based on what you have.

A finely chopped salad with cucumber, tomato, onion, and chickpeas, tossed in lemon and olive oil. Crisp, bright, and filling enough to stand on its own.
