A batch of herby rice is a natural partner to peak-season tomatoes. But don’t forget about this rice once those tomatoes are gone. Green rice works in any season—paired with roasted squash, crispy-skinned fish, or big pieces of fresh cheese, such as paneer.

Preparation
Step 1
Blend herbs, oil, lime juice, garlic, salt, and 2 Tbsp. almonds in a blender or food processor until a smooth pesto-like sauce forms. Taste and add more lime juice, garlic, and/or salt if desired—you want the sauce to be well seasoned.
Step 2
Toss rice with 3/4 cup sauce in a medium bowl. Add avocado and scallion and gently toss again.
Step 3
Divide rice mixture among shallow bowls. Top each with egg and tomato, dividing evenly. Drizzle some remaining sauce over. Top with remaining 2 Tbsp. almonds.
