Ingredients

Grain/Protein

• 2 1/2 cups water
• 1/2 cup brown rice
• 1/2 cup red quinoa
• 1/2 cup egg whites
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Veggies

• 1 head of kale, torn into bite sized pieces
• 2 red peppers, chopped
• 4 carrots, chopped
• 1 yellow onion, chopped
• 1 sweet potato, chopped – leave the skin on!
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon onion soup mix – onion powder would work too
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted

Miso Gravy

• 1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
• 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
• 3 tablespoon miso
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon braggs soy sauce
• 1 3 tablespoon arrowroot powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoon mustard
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

1. To make the grain: combine all ingredients but egg whites in a medium saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil before reducing to simmer and allowing to cook for 30-40 minutes. In the last 10 minutes of cooking, when there’s still a bit of water left, stir in egg whites and place the lid back on. Once complete, remove from heat and allow to sit with lid on until ready.
2. To make the veggies: preheat oven to 400F and combine all ingredients but kale on a baking sheet. Make sure to toss so that all veggies are coated in oil. Place in the oven for 35-40 minutes until sweet potato is soft. Add kale for the last 5 minutes of cooking.
3. To make the miso gravy: Combine dry ingredients in medium saucepan, add vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Allow to simmer for 30 seconds before removing from heat and adding miso, oil, braggs, and mustard. Whisk until combined. Serve hot.
4. To make the luscious bowl: stack each yummy creation from above in a deep bowl and dig in!
