Do you have a recipe? I have heard what is in them, but not seen a recipe.
I think the video is on the team website. I've never tried to eat them on the bike, but I'll make a rice/egg/liquid amino thing for breakfast before long rides.
Those look delicious. Like fried rice, except not fried. I especially like the idea of working bacon into an in-ride meal.
This will have to be tried.
Fights begin, finger prints are took, days is lost, bail is made, court dates are ignored, cycle is repeated.
I typed out a recipe from the video:
Francois (Rice/Egg Cakes)
Proportions are 3 eggs:1 cup sushi rice
1. Scramble eggs using good olive oil. Season to taste. (salt, soy, amino)
2. In a baking pan or bread pan mix egg, rice, grated parm. cheese and add "extras" such as diced canadian bacon, ham or fruit.
3. Press mixture with a spatula and compact it. Let cool until firm.
4. Cut into 3"X3" squares and wrap in tin foil.

tried this today
(to eat as lunches at school...shoving 2000 calories in my mouth between 8 to 3...oh yea)
1 cup short grain brown rice
3 eggs
1/4 cup fresh ground mozzarella
1 cup chopped spinach
1/3 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup chopped basil
turned out too moist -- they hold together, but barely. too much liquid with the tomato sauce. I need to use drained chopped romas or something...they taste all right, though....
I'll try another batch this week to get the texture right...they're a handy thing to bring as lunches...I can only eat so many PBJs and clif bars.....

Would it be ok to use saute'd Tofu instead of egg? I am not really an egg fan.
I like the idea of making both savory and sweet ones-
Savory with cheese and Prociutto
Sweet with Honey and nuts

I just made 2 flavors- I used tofu instead of eggs because I don't like scrambled eggs.
Sweet/salty-
Sushi Rice
Sauteed tofu- In olive oil
salt
Brown rice syrup
forgot the nuts- next time. Maybe raisins or date pieces would be good
Savory (italian)
Sushi Rice
Sauteed Savory flavored tofu- in olive oil
salt/pepper/italian seasoning
parmesano regianno
prociutto

this worked great
1 cup sushi rice
3 eggs
8 slices lowfat turkey bacon
2 cups chopped spinach
~1 cup chopped carrots
2 tbsb basil pesto
1/4 cup parmeggiano-reggiano
cut it into 6 bars
brought bars to school to eat as quick lunch and snacks over a few days.
tried them with 1/2 cup tomato-based pasta sauce...still a bit too moist, but the flavor was good. sun-dried tomato would be perfect, but I'm allergic, so....
Made em' :) For the life of me could not find proper sushi rice so I used risotto rice which is pretty much the same. Good enough for gov't work yo.
It's cooling right now. Taste is excellent and it compacts nice. I went with Lim's direction. He uses less water to make the rice than usual...end result is real tight rice. Anywho. Queen just snapped up a couple squares and declares this a winner.
