Black Bean Buddha Bowl with Gingery Lemon Tahini Sauce
Incredibly comforting black bean Buddha bowl with steamed kale, brown rice, and gingery lemon tahini sauce! Nourishing ingredients, BIG flavor, a hearty plant-based meal.
Prepare brown rice using either the Instant Pot method or the Perfect Brown Rice method (which doesn’t require an Instant Pot). Set aside. Prepare black beans using either the Instant Pot method or the Black Beans from scratch method (which doesn’t require an Instant Pot). Set aside. (I would recommend making the black beans in the Instant Pot — if you have one — and the brown rice on the stovetop so they can cook simultaneously).
Steam kale for 1-2 minutes, or until wilted but vibrant green. Set aside.
To serve, divide grains and beans between serving bowls and top with steamed kale, 3 Tbsp each sauerkraut or kimchi, sliced green onion, avocado, sea vegetables (optional), and sesame seeds (optional).
Best when fresh. Store leftovers (sauce separate) in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Kale is best when steamed fresh. Grains and beans are freezer friendly, the rest is best when fresh.
