Rice
Rice is a low-cost and convenient source of food to gain weight. In general, 1 cup or 165g of cooked rice contains approximately 43g of carbohydrates and 190 calories. Also, it is quite calorie-dense, meaning that you could easily get a high amount of calories and carbs from a single serving. When you are in a rush or on the go, 2-minute packs of rice could be added easily to other pre-made meals and protein sources. Another way of preparing is to cook a large rice pot for the whole week and eat it with some healthy fats and proteins. However, because of its phytic and arsenic acid content, it isn’t advisable to consume too much rice. [10]
