Just a quick question. How do dissolve water? Wouldn’t absorbed be a better term?
I’m sure you can teach me a thing or two about what healthy foods to eat, so thank you for sharing. But please don’t roast your veggies on top of aluminum foil. If you have to use aluminum foil, just don’t heat it…leaks bad stuff into your food.
thanks for sharing the recipe.
Do you eat this warm or cold?
Hi! Question… Am I missing the rest of the recipe or is it mainly just common sense? Ha! Like after you roast the veggies – then what comes next? All I see is the roasting the veg instructions and then it ends. Help! Thanks!
It’s mainly common sense 🙂 Bowls are super easy because you pretty much just throw everything together after all the different parts are cooked!
This is delicious–thanks for sharing!
I love bowls like this for dinner. And great idea on the posting schedule. Mine has sucked the last few months with all the upheaval of moving across the globe – need to get back into the swing 🙂
I can’t tell you how amazing it felt to create a schedule. Check it off the list!
Your veggies look so good!! I love the way adding fresh garlic to veggies before baking tastes but I’m always a little worried that the garlic will burn.
Why have I never thought of adding hummus to a veggie rice bowl?! Brilliant idea!
the real gossip girl here. That was just Jenny Humphries up top.
Dude, the mindset behind your posting schedule is genius- I find myself eating cookies for breakfast all week. I don;t mind that actually…
Roasted potatoes and cauliflower > everything. I like white.
That’s cuz I’m GENIUSSSSS. It also helps me eat a variety of different foods. I used to eat the same thing erry day. #boring
Roasted veggies are the best! I also enjoy short grain brown rice better or even white rice. There is some debate about which is better for you. White rice is missing some of the nutrients found in brown rice, but brown rice is harder on digestion and can scratch up the intestinal walls. I switch off or try to soak my brown rice ahead of time. Either way, this rice bowl looks delish!
o0o soaking your rice is a great idea! I’ve never done that, but I bet it would come out much softer!
Rice and veggie bowls are my go to weeknight dinner.. I always make them as they are so healthy, delicious and flavoursome. Definitely need to try out your recipe – it’s perfect for myself and my vegetarian fam!
😀 Thanks Thalia!
I love making bowls – perfect for lunch or dinner! I love all the combinations of flavours and textures!

You do everything on the weekend?! Props to you sista 😀 Can’t wait to skype!!
