Title: Savory Superfood Brown Rice Bowl with Roasted Carrots and Kale
Ingredients:
– 1 cup of savory superfood brown rice
– 2 medium-sized carrots, peeled and chopped
– 2 cups of kale, washed and chopped
– 3 tablespoons of olive oil, divided
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon of tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
– 1 teaspoon of maple syrup
– Salt and pepper to taste
1. Rinse and cook the brown rice according to package instructions.
2. While the brown rice is cooking, preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
3. Toss the chopped carrots with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and spread them out on a baking sheet. Roast the carrots in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and lightly caramelized.
4. In a small bowl, whisk 1 tablespoon of olive oil with the minced garlic, tamari, maple syrup, salt, and pepper to make a simple and delicious salad dressing.
5. Once the brown rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and mix the dressing through the rice.
6. Toss the chopped kale with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Roast the kale on a separate baking sheet for 15-20 minutes, or until it is tender, slightly crispy, and slightly browned at the edges.
7. While the kale is roasting, remove the carrots from the oven and toss them with the garlic and dressing.
8. To serve, spoon the brown rice into a bowl, spoon over the roasted carrots, and top with roasted kale and any additional desired toppings (such as chopped nuts or seeds).
