Chef Tips

Make this bowl hot or cold. Yes, you can add protein or any other roasted veggie. 

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425F. Toss broccoli with some olive oil and season with salt. Roast on a parchment line tray until golden brown. Remove and repeat with the kale. Allow to cool and roughly chop.

Step 2

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk until combined. Add a tablespoon of water if needed to get a thinner consistency. Keep any leftovers in a jar for up to a week.

Step 3

To build, divide the brown rice between bowls. Top with the broccoli, carrot and kale. Sprinkle with the almonds or sesame seeds. Drizzle with the miso ranch.
