Ingredients

- Soy sauce to taste (optional)
- 1 to 2 teaspoons lemon-scented olive oil, to taste
- 1 cup spinach leaves, or a mixture of spinach and arugula, tightly packed

Preparation
Step 1
Sprouted brown rice is a packaged product that you can find in natural foods stores with other packaged grains. The grains are sprouted, then dried. It looks and cooks like regular brown rice.
1. Season the cooked sprouted brown rice to taste with soy sauce, and place in a large, wide bowl.
2. Stalk the salad greens and cut crosswise into thin strips (chiffonade). Alternatively, place the greens in a bowl and cut into small pieces with scissors. Toss with the lemon oil and pile over the rice, or toss with the rice. Break up the smoked trout, and place on top of the spinach. Squeeze on a few drops of lemon juice and top with the cilantro. Scatter on the lemon zest, sprinkle on the sesame seeds and serve.
Variation: You can also toss all of the ingredients together and serve.
Advance preparation:
The cooked sprouted brown rice will keep for three or four days in the refrigerator.
