2. Interactive Ingredients Checklist & Keto / High-Protein Swaps
When it comes to the ingredients, I’m a firm believer in using high-quality and measured portions.
For this recipe, I recommend using 1 cup of cooked Japanese short-grain rice, 1/2 cup of diced fresh cucumber, 2 large eggs, and 1/2 cup of cooked succulent shrimp.
Don’t forget to add the tangy and refreshing dressing made with rice vinegar, soy sauce, and honey!

Chef Sofia’s Tested Swaps (High-Protein · Keto/Low-Carb · Air Fryer)
• High-Protein Boost: Add 1 scoop of your favorite whey protein powder to the rice bowl for an extra 20g of protein!
• Keto & Low-Carb Swap: Replace the Japanese short-grain rice with cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles for a low-carb and keto-friendly option!
• Air Fryer Option: Cook the shrimp and meat in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 5-7 minutes, shaking halfway through, for a crispy and healthier alternative!
