We always emphasize the importance of a good base! It sets the tone for the whole bowl. Begin by rinsing your rice thoroughly to remove excess starch, then cook it in a pressure cooker or on the stovetop.
Lightly coat the sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, sea salt, and pepper. Spread the cubes out evenly on a parchment-lined pan, and roast them until golden-brown. Roasting enhances the natural sugars in sweet potatoes, so it’s our preferred cooking method.
Ensure the tofu is well-pressed so it absorbs the marinade better. Toss the tofu cubes with the rest of the garlic powder, nutritional yeast, liquid aminos, salt, and pepper. Roast them on a separate baking sheet until they’re golden brown and crispy.
Heat a touch more oil in a pan on low, then cook the green peas until heated through. Season them with a pinch more garlic powder, salt, and pepper. In the meantime, cut up the rest of the fresh vegetables.
Begin with a layer of brown rice, then spinach, tofu cubes, sweet potatoes, and the rest of the vegetables. Garnish each bowl with red onion slices, lime juice, avocado slices, and your dressing of choice. Happy eating!
