We've often talked about quick weeknight solutions for using up leftover rice. But for nights when even fried rice are too much work, these recipes can be made entirely ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to eat. Of course, cooking rice in advance comes with challenges: grains can dry out, turn mushy, or overcook during reheating. That's why many of the recipes here are whole-grain rice salads, where sturdy, nutty grains hold up well after a night in the refrigerator.

What tools and software do you use to do your job?

I love the Hemingway App for basic grammar and checking grade level, Qwoted or HERO for finding expert insights, and always Google Docs.

Why did you become a journalist?

I started writing when I was very young (think grade school, writing short stories) but started writing professionally in 2017.

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

Don't quit when the work doesn't come immediately. Keep pitching, use social networks to gain connections, and find your niche early on.
