This rejuvenating nourishing bowl recipe is the combination of awesome veggies: rainbow carrots and spinach with lentils and brown rice. Low FODMAP and vegan.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup brown rice
- 1 cup water
- pinch of salt
- 1 rainbow carrot medium, peeled and sliced
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp tamari
- 1/4 cup lentils canned
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar optional
- 2 cups spinach
- 1 tbsp olive oil OR garlic infused oil
- 1 handful pumkin seeds
For the dressing
- 1 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
- 1 tbsp walnut oil extra virgin
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- pinch of salt
- pinch of nutmeg optional
Instructions
- Place the rice in a sauce pan with boiling water and a pinch of salt. Cook on a low heat, until all the water has been absorbed and the rice is cooked.
- Steam the carrot for about thirty minutes or until soft. Place in a bowl and mash with a fork, mixing in the lemon and tamari.
- Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium–high heat. Add the spinach and sauté for 5 minutes or until spinach has wilted.
- Remove the spinach and place the lentils to heat them. I suggest adding 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar to enhance their flavor.
- Mix the dressing together in a mug, then place everything in a bowl and pour the dressing over it. Finally toss in the pumpkin seeds and serve.
Notes
Canned lentils are safest in the low FODMAP diet. If you are not following it you can use home cooked lentils. One medium carrot is the safe quantity.
