macro bowls

The macro bowls featured in Joe Yonan's Mastering the Art of Plant-Based Cooking - nutty brown rice, a rainbow of vegetables, and a miso-tahini dressing you'll want to put on everything.

Macro Bowls

brown rice,

Five spice powder

(120 ml) well-stirred tahini

white miso

garlic cloves, grated

ginger

lemon juice

soy sauce

agave or maple syrup

broccoli,

kabocha, red kuri,

Yellow beans beans,

Salt,

For serving: toasted sesame seeds, furikake,

Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add the rice to the boiling water, reduce the heat to a simmer, partially cover, and cook until the rice is tender, about 30 minutes. Drain off the remaining water and return the rice to the pot. Cover tightly and let the rice sit for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.

Cook the rice:

In a bowl or jar whisk together the tahini, miso, garlic, ginger, lemon juice, soy sauce, syrup. Whisk in warm water 2 tablespoons at a time until the dressing is thick but able to be drizzled. Set aside.

Make the sauce:

Heat a splash of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the tofu in a single layer until the bottoms are golden. I tend to cook just one side. Remove from the pan, transfer to a plate, and season with salt and a generous sprinkling of five spice. Set aside.

Cook the tofu:

In a large pot fitted with a steamer basket or insert, bring 1-inch of water to a boil. Arrange the vegetables in the basket. Cover and steam until the vegetables are tender but with some bite remaining, this typically takes just a few minutes. If you are using thinner or smaller vegetables, add them to the steamer a couple minutes after the more substantial vegetables go in.

Steam the vegetables:

Divide the rice among serving bowls. Top each bowl with vegetables, tofu, and a generous drizzle of the sauce. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds, and add a bit of kimchi (or other fermented vegetables). Enjoy warm.

Assemble the macro bowls:

Yummy! I meal prep for someone who can’t cook and this recipe looked perfect. I was out of tahini but did have hulled sesame seeds and a high speed blender so I grabbed a smoothie jar and started there. After blasting the seeds to a paste I added the other ingredients and to say the stuff is good is, well, understatement. An equally impressive component of this recipe is the adaptability. You can shop for this anywhere from a farmers market to a grocery liquidator and make a great meal. This recipe rocks stretching budgets to supply nutrient-dense, delicious, beautiful meals on a slime dime. Good miso isn’t cheap but that tiny tub goes a long way. People, have fun with this one. It’s made for sharing.
