Rinse the rice in a bowl with cold water. Drain and repeat until the water is no longer cloudy. Drain completely.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mustard seeds and cook for 30 seconds. Add the cashews and cook until lightly browned, about 20 seconds. Add the onion, peppers, ginger, and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and cook until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Toss rice with the onion mixture and the yogurt. Nutritional information is based on a 1/2-cup serving.

Lunch is where most PCOS meal plans either succeed or collapse. A meal like this Cashew Rice that combines adequate protein, fibre-rich carbs, and fat keeps blood sugar stable for the rest of the workday and reduces the late-afternoon energy crash that drives sugar cravings around 3-4pm.
