How is this Vegan Rice Salad Power Bowl made? It’s very easy:
Instructions
- Cook the rice as instructed on the package.
- Heat coconut oil in a large pan and add the sliced portabella mushrooms, broccoli florets and sliced carrots and let it cook for 5 minutes at medium high heat while stirring occasionally.
- Once the liquid the portabella mushrooms releases are absorbed again, add the peas, minced garlic, curry powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Stir to combine and lower the heat. Let the dish cook for a few more minutes, until the broccoli are tender to the bite.
