This Winter Glow Buddha Bowl features black rice, roasted sweet potatoes, pomegranate seeds, and a zesty lemon-ginger dressing for a vibrant, balanced meal.
Prepare your Black Rice according to package. I used a rice cooker and the "brown rice" setting. If your rice cooker has a "multi-grain setting" use that instead.
Pre-heat the oven to 400 °F and cube up the sweet potato into evenly sized pieces. Coat the sweet potato cubes with olive oil and bake on a sheet pan in pre-heated oven for 25-30 minutes. Shake the pan and flip the sweet potato cubes halfway to cook evenly. You will know they are ready when they are fork-tender and the edges are slightly caramelized. Continue to the next steps to further prepare while the sweet potato and black rice are cooking.
Shred Red Cabbage, Seed the Pomegranate, and clean your fresh baby spinach.
Prepare the Lemon-Carrot Ginger Dressing using a blender. Add all of your ingredients and blend until smooth. Taste and adjust to desired flavor.
Once your Black Rice and your Sweet Potato are finished cooking, prepare your bowls.
Add even amounts of Baby Spinach, roasted Sweet Potato, Red Cabbage, Black Rice, and Pomegranate seeds to your Bowl. Drizzle with your Lemon-Carrot Ginger Dressing.
