Garlicky Wild Rice Greenie Bowl

Ingredients

"The rice in this recipe provides all the flavour, texture and substance to perfectly accompany loads of alkalising greens. Have fun choosing your favourite greens to add to this nourishing bowl of goodness and enjoy them with a squeeze of lime and a creamy avo. Perfect when you are craving that green goodness. This recipe also works really well with quinoa or brown rice." ~ Harriet Birrell.

Garlicky Rice:

190g (1 cup) wild rice
1 Tbs hulled tahini
1 Tbs coconut aminos
1/2 tsp garlic powder

Salad:

45g (1 cup) English spinach
1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
60g (1 cup) alfalfa sprouts
1 sheet organic nori, shredded
40g (1 cup) pea shoots
1 avocado, sliced
1/2 tsp black sesame seeds
1/2 tsp white sesame seeds
1 lime, halved

Method

Place the rice in a medium saucepan with 500mL (2 cups) of water. Bring to the boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until all the water is absorbed.

While the rice cooks, assemble your salad in two serving bowls.

Once the rice is cooked, stir through the tahini, coconut aminos and garlic powder, add to the salad bowls and serve.
