Never confident to post a foodie pic, but first time eating black rice, chilli cooked from ground up. Wow I underestimated how purple the water got with the rice ha ha. Think I need some element of colour, everything looks so dark but it’s actually really tasty 👍
Chilli with Black Rice: Never confident to... - Healthy Eating
Chilli with Black Rice
Your chili and black rice looks great and wonderful picture. Do you have leftovers?
I always do enough for another chilli portion, tend to eat a couple days later, the flavours mature very nicely ha ha
I always have leftovers when we have chili for a dinner and then the next day or two have the last bowl for a lunch. Really good taste. Yes, the flavors do blend really nicely together.
I've never had black rice before. What else can be cooked with it?
I’ve no idea, I normally eat brown, but trying to keep finding and eating other healthy foods. I’ll need to google black rice and curries as I could try it with one of those ha ha
Have you tried any different flavors of quinoa? They work in some types of meals, too.
I admit weirdly I can’t get on with Quinoa, during lockdown sometimes it was substituted for rice, and I did try it a few times, but I’m a brown rice addict ha ha
I eat and like both-- brown rice and quinoa. I have the brown rice for quiches as the crust since I eat gluten free due to a wheat/gluten sensitivity. Also, brown rice has lower carbs. instead of white rice. I'm also a type 1 Diabetic.
Sounds like you’re taking great care of yourself!
Thank you for saying that, CornishGent. I appreciate it very much. 😀👍 Sometimes, it’s not always easy and there’s ‘hiccups’ now and then, but I deal with them!😀👍🌈
Well I respect you, for sure
Thank you! Have you seen: healthunlocked.com/healthye... on the gluten free topic?😀👍🌈
Hi Hidden
I know what you mean about the dark purple colour of the water, after cooking black rice - I love the taste of that rice, it's really yummy. Your meal looks tasty.

Thanks Zest, I admit it the rice did taste nice, ha ha even if it didn’t, it’s worth it as a healthy change ☺️
Hey your chilli with black rice looks amazing, black rice does look so different but has a lovely taste and texture so thanks for posting your great photo.
I’m glad that you enjoyed your meal. 👍
Thanks Jerry and no problem wasn’t sure if it was a photogenic meal or not ha ha
Thanks for posting this picture. The chili looks good!!
Thank you ☺️ it tasted good too ha ha
Hope you enjoy, DONT like dark colored food unappetizing to Me. 😷🙏
No I agree in some respects the rice is very dark, but I’ve personally always gone for flavour over presentation ha ha that’s why I never eat in posh restaurants 😂
As long as You Emjoyed it😷👍
