Why This Rice Hack Rocks for Weight Loss

Before diving into the nitty-gritty of this awesome rice hack, let’s chat about why managing blood sugar and boosting dietary protein are crucial, not just for overall health but specifically for weight loss. You see, when our blood sugar levels are as erratic as a rollercoaster, we’re more likely to face energy dips, uncontrollable cravings, and yes, even weight gain. Plus, adding more protein to our meals can help us feel full longer, reducing the urge to snack on less-than-ideal treats.

I’ve seen countless women lose weight by balancing their blood sugar

As a Clinical Nutritionist, I love sharing the benefits of managing our blood sugar for weight loss. This is a great health tip to implement because our blood sugar can influence our eating habits. What I find with my weight loss clients, is that when they add in simple health hacks, like this rice hack, they are more satiated and feel full longer!

The Rice Hack: A Balancing Act

So, what’s this rice hack all about? It’s a simple but oh-so-effective. By tweaking how we cook our rice, we can increase its resistant starch content while infusing it with a protein boost. This double-whammy not only makes the rice more gut-friendly but also turns it into a stealthy ally in our weight loss journey.

Ingredients You’ll Need:

• 3 cups of your preferred rice
• 1 tbsp of organic, unrefined coconut oil
• 6 cups of bone broth (chicken or any broth with a decent protein kick)
• An Instapot or a trusty stovetop

Step-by-Step Guide to Rice Perfection

1. Rinse the Rice: Start by rinsing the rice with some hot water for a couple of minutes. 
2. Cook the Rice: Drain the rice and add to the Instapot with the coconut oil and bone broth. Optional: add your favorite seasonings! Cook using the rice setting on the Insta pot.
3. Cool rice: Once cooked, place the rice in a glass Tupperware and leave it in the refrigerator uncovered until it cools. Once it’s cooled completely, you may cover it. This helps prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. You can leave the rice in the refrigerator until you are ready to eat it. 
4. Enjoy Your Protein-Rich Rice: Once you’re reading to enjoy, you can warm up the rice in the microwave or stovetop and serve it with your main dish.

Why Bone Broth Rocks (Even If It’s Not a Complete Protein)

A quick note on bone broth: While it’s not a complete protein source due to low tryptophan levels, it’s still a fantastic addition to our rice hack. Our bodies are smart and can piece together complete proteins from various sources throughout the day. So, as long as you’re eating a varied diet, you’re golden.
