About CARIBBEAN-STYLE BROWN RICE WITH BLACK BEANS, CARIBBEAN-STYLE BROWN WITH BLACK BEANS

Simply Balanced Caribbean-Style Brown Rice with Black Beans is a ready-to-eat or heat-and-serve seasoned rice dish sold under Target's Simply Balanced private-label brand. Simply Balanced was Target's organic and better-for-you store brand before being integrated into Good & Gather after 2019. This product is a convenient single-serve or side-dish format combining cooked brown rice with black beans and Caribbean-inspired seasonings.

The ingredient list begins with water and long grain parboiled brown rice as the primary grain component. Parboiling is a partial pre-cooking process that partially gelatinizes starch, improving the texture of cooked rice and preserving more B vitamins relative to standard white rice milling. Black beans are the primary protein contributor. Corn and red bell peppers provide vegetable components. Sunflower oil adds a small fat contribution. Chicken broth powder is present as a savory flavoring base — importantly, this makes the product non-vegetarian and non-vegan. Sea salt, garlic powder, onion powder, ground coriander seed, dried cilantro, ground nutmeg, and ground white pepper build the Caribbean-inspired spice profile. Lime juice powder (maltodextrin and lime juice) provides acidity. No major allergens beyond the chicken broth powder (potential for trace dairy or other allergens in broth powder formulations) are declared.

Per 100 grams, this product provides 104 calories, 2.92 grams of protein, 19.17 grams of carbohydrates, 1.67 grams of fat, and 1.2 grams of dietary fiber. The calorie density is low to moderate. This product is not vegetarian due to chicken broth powder. It appears gluten-free based on declared ingredients. It represents a convenient whole-grain side dish with a culturally inspired flavor profile.
