Instructions

Prepare the rice: Rinse your rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice and 2 cups of water or vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes. Once done, set aside.
Prepare the oven: While the rice is cooking, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Season the salmon: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Brush this mixture generously over the salmon fillets.
Roast the salmon: Place the seasoned salmon on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Sauté the vegetables: In a skillet over medium heat, add a little olive oil. Toss in the broccoli florets and sliced bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes until tender-crisp. Add shredded carrots and continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes.
Assemble your bowl: In a large bowl or individual serving bowls, layer the cooked rice. Flake the salmon on top, and add sautéed vegetables. Drizzle with soy sauce or tamari, and top with avocado slices and sesame seeds. Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired.
Serve: Your Delicious Salmon Rice Bowls are ready! Enjoy warm and cozy evenings with this nutritious and flavorful dish.

Notes
