How to Prepare Coconut Brown Rice Bowl With Avocado Cream Dressing [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
For the Avocado a La Creme Dressing
- In a blender, add the avocado, lemon juice, ginger and coconut cream.
- Blend until smooth, gently adding the Olive Oil. You may need to scrape down the sides of the blender a couple of times until the desired consistency is reached.
- Season with salt and pepper, and serve chilled.
For the Brown Rice Bowl
- Place the cubed sweet potato into a small roasting dish, add some coconut oil and roast until soft.
- Place the clean soaked brown rice into a medium pot. Add the water and coconut cream and bring to the boil.
- Turn heat down and allow to simmer until cooked, ensuring it doesn't stick to the bottom. Eventually it will absorb all the water so no rinsing is necessary afterwards.
- Alternatively cook in a rice cooker.
- De-vein and chop your celery stick and lightly roast your pine nuts.
- Once your rice and sweet potato are cooked, place rice into a bowl. Gently stir in the beans and the celery. Add a sprinkle of salt to season.
- Add the roasted sweet potato, Avocado a La Creme dressing, and top with the roasted pine nuts.
