Enter: the banh mi sandwich.  Pulled pork, pickled carrots, cucumbers… all lusciously sandwiched between a huge bun that’s not only high calorie and full of refined carbs, but in my opinion it masks the beautiful flavors between it!  This conflict has haunted me for years, so imagine my surprise when I came across this recipe from www.skinnytaste.com.  A banh mi in the form of a bowl versus a sandwich!?  Higher fiber (it uses brown rice- duh), lower calorie (no mayo based sauces, fatty meats, or high calorie buns), this is a bowl you’ll want over and over again (or maybe that’s just me).
