VEGGIE 'STIR FRY'!


This dish was so tasty and it looks so much like a stir fry dish, except 100% raw!  This is one way to satisfy your Asian food craving!  I use parsnips in this recipe as the 'rice'.   I have seen them in every grocery store I've been to so you should have no trouble finding them.  They either come individually or in a bag already packaged.  They are full of Vitamin C and have tons of fiber and high in folic acid.  They have other minerals and vitamins in them, too, so eat up!


Ingredients:

2 cups parsnips, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1/2 cup pine nuts OR walnuts
1 cup broccoli, cut
1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced





Ok, now cut all your veggies up... you can chop the parsnips up into little cubes OR cut them up into small chunks and place them in your food processor to make 'rice'....





 (by hand)


(food processor)
 
I prefer the food processor 'rice' because of the texture and it's MUCH faster!
 
Now chop up the carrots...
 

 


Slice the mushrooms and add the nuts and broccoli into the bowl of carrots and parsnips.  Now you have a big bowl of awesomeness....
 
 
Now for the super easy dressing...
 
1/4 cup olive oil
1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes
1 tsp chili powder
1 1/2 tsp curry powder
1 TBSP tamari (raw soy sauce found NEXT to reg soy sauce)
1 TBSP agave nectar

Place all ingredients in food processor and COMBINE!


 Pour over all your veggies...
 


Toss it up!  Eat!
 
 
Rawsome!  :)
 
 
*Notes:  Tamari is also called Nama Shoyu.  It's about the same price as regular soy sauce.  If for some reason your store doesn't have it, opt for LOW sodium soy sauce.

*I used sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil in the jar.  If you use sun-dried tomatoes that are dry, soak them in water for about 20 mins to soften them up.
