What is in a Vegan Veggie Bowl?

This easy Vegan Veggie Bowl is packed with fluffy rice piled high with fresh vegetables and delicious dressing. Each ingredient of this bowl is loaded with flavor. As I already mentioned, it is easily customized to anyone’s taste. Below I will leave you the combination of ingredients that I found most delicious:

  • fluffy long grain rice – I opt for a combo of uniquely grassy wild rice and Basmati rice;
  • avocado – healthy fats are never excessive – grab a ripe, creamy avocado;
  • bell pepper – adds a pleasant crunchy and sweet taste;
  • cauliflower – if you need some healthy carbohydrates, this veggie is perfect. Cauliflower contains fiber to enhance weight loss and digestion, provides antioxidants that can protect against cancer, and is packed with many other healthy nutrients;
  • plant-based cheese – choose any cheese you like. Lately, I discovered cheese made of coconut milk, and I prefer it even better than Tofu.
  • dressing – here nothing special but delicious – a combo of olive oil, toasted sesame oil, white wine vinegar, salt, pepper, chili flakes, and garlic powder;
  • toasted sesame seeds – for garnish.

How to make rice?

vegan veggie bowlThe only step that you need to pay attention to in this vegan veggie bowl recipe is to boil the rice – that you will use as a base for the dish. If you have an Instant Pot and want to fast-forward the process, here is how to make perfect Instant Pot Basmati Rice. But today, I will come up with the steps for the stovetop method.

Wash the rice thoroughly under a jet of cold water. This step is important if you want to obtain fluffy rice as it removes the excess starches. Watch the video below:

Bring a ratio of 1:2 of rice and water to boil in a large pot on high. Once bubbling, add a pinch of salt and lower the heat to a minimum. Simmer it covered for 15 – 20 minutes until all the liquid is completely absorbed. Cook without stirring.

Once cooked, let the rice rest covered for 15 more minutes.

How to assemble Vegan Veggie Bowl?

If your rice is cooked, you have no problem assembling the bowl. But before you start, make the dressing. In a small bowl or even easier jar, combine olive oil, toasted sesame oil, white wine vinegar, salt, pepper, chili flakes, freshly squeezed lime juice, and garlic powder. Close the jar with a lid and give it a good twist. Combine the dressing ingredients with a small whisk if you use a bowl.

Assemble individual bowls using approximately the same amount of all ingredients you have. Give a generous drizzle of prepared dressing, and garnish with toasted sesame seeds and spring onion.

Mix and ENJOY!
