Sunday Lunch/Dinner: Chickpea Broccoli Coconut Rice 🥦🧅🥥🌰🌱😋❤️

Hello everyone, hope you have a peaceful Sunday and a great week ahead with many wonderful possibilities! 🤗

Today I made a mixture of veggies in wok served over a bed of basmati rice cooked in coconut milk. It takes less than 30 mins to prepare and it’s delicious, bursting with flavors.😋👍

Recipe:

1. Cooked Rice: 1 to 1 ratio of basmati rice and coconut milk. I used 1 cup of rice and 1 cup of coconut milk , easily cooked in my rice cooker.

2. In a wok, add just one tbsp of coconut oil and quick stir these mixture: 1 cup chickpea, 1 cup chopped broccoli, 1/2 cup diced red onions, 1/2 cup of toasted walnuts, 1/2 cup shredded coconut, handful of chopped parsley. Seasoned with: 2 tbsp turmeric powder, 2 tbsp smoked paprika powder, 1 tbsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp chili powder, peppers, and a bit of salt to taste.

Very simple lovely combination and I enjoy over a cup of hibiscus ice tea. 😁👍

As always, be inspired, be joyful, take a picture and Enjoy it! 😋❤️

Hi Kainan, thank you very much for saying that! 🤗🙏

This is very much like fried rice I feel. I think for something like this can be turned into gluten-free Vegan ready box dinner: heathy, flavorful and quick just by microwave. 🤔

Hope you are doing great today! 😁

Hi Koko what a great idea to cook rice in coconut milk instead of water it must have had a lovely flavour with a creamy texture so a great idea. 😊

Hi Jerry, thank you very much for saying that about my coconut rice. 😁🙏 It is very flavorful and like Spanish rice, they cook in tomato sauce, delicious 😋👍

Hope you have a great rest of the evening! 😊

It does look it 😊 I will be cooking Ratatouille Ristotto and a batch of my lentil, veggie and cheese shepardless pie

[Hidden in reply to Kitten-whiskers]

That sounds wonderful Debs 😇 I am still new to vegan diet and still experiencing with many common ingredients used in vegan dishes. Lentil is something I haven’t tried to cook and I’m so glad you are going to make this Saturday. Much appreciated if you could share in detail how you prepare it so I can learn your cooking technique with lentils. 😁🙏❤️

[Kitten-whiskers Administrator in reply to Hidden]

Yes of course Koko, I will add it to my post for you 🙃

Your doing great with all your vegan recipes
