Looking for a healthy recipe that’s easy to make, beautiful to view, and flavorful to eat? My Healthy Rainbow Veggie Wild Rice Bowls check all the boxes!

Fresh veggies and air-fried purple potatoes sit atop a serving of nutty wild rice with a slightly spicy honey-lime vinaigrette tying everything together.

The great thing about this recipe is you can replace any “color” of ingredient with your favorites. Don’t like sugar snap peas? Swap steamed broccoli as a green choice. Not a fan of yellow peppers? Switch them out for yellow squash. You get the idea!

Follow along and let’s make two servings of this yummy recipe together!

In one of the medium bowls, toss the quartered baby purple potatoes in 1 Tablespoon of the olive oil. Place the potato quarters in an air fryer and cook them for 10-15 minutes on medium (if temperature selection is available) until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Set them aside until you’re ready to assemble the rice bowls.

Place the remaining 2 Tablespoons of olive oil, the lime juice, hot honey, salt, and cinnamon in the bottom of the second medium bowl. Use a whisk to combine the dressing ingredients. Add the cooked wild rice to the bowl and mix well with a spoon to combine with the dressing.

Divide the dressed wild rice and place an equal amount into each serving bowl. Top around the wild rice in each bowl decoratively with an equal amount of the tomatoes, carrots, peppers, snap peas, and air-fried potatoes. Sprinkle the finished rice bowls with sliced green onion, if desired. Makes 2 servings. Enjoy!
