Instructions
Rice
- I like to use microwave rice on nights when I'm in a hurry.
- Prepare rice according to the package instructions. The cooking time and water/rice ratio will vary depending on the type of brown rice you use.
Cheezy Sauce
- Combine all the veggies, stock, and garlic in a pot over high heat.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until tender, approx 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes with the lid on. Do not drain water.
- Add plant milk, nutritional yeast and turmeric.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Using a blender or a stick/immersion blender, blend veggies and water to make the cheez sauce. You may need to do this step in batches.
- Check seasoning and adjust according to taste.
Veggies
- Add broccoli, mushrooms and carrots in a medium-sized pot. Steam with about an inch of water at that bottom over medium heat until tender – approximately 5-6 minutes.
Assemble
- Add cooked rice to the bottom of four serving bowls.
- Top with steamed veggies and cheezy sauce.
- Garnish with sliced almonds.
- Serve and enjoy.
