Bowl of vegetables.

If you want comfort food that’s good for you, look no further. This delicious everything bowl contains sweet potatoes, broccoli, carrot, and spinach on brown rice with ginger-miso dressing. It’s not only comforting but also super nutritious! Packed with immune-boosting vitamins, like A, B-6 (pyridoxine), C, and E, as well as minerals like zinc and selenium, this bowl will leave you feeling nourished to the core.

Pumpkin seeds and hemp seed hearts add a dash of calcium and iron, and the spices used — turmeric, garlic, paprika, and pepper — add antioxidants and phytonutrients. The curcuminoids found in turmeric have a well-known ability to boost your health; they tamp down the release of cytokines, which tend to interfere with immune health.[1] Turmeric is also an adaptogen, an herb or spice that helps the body adapt to stress.[2]

We selected ingredients with rich nutrient profiles and immune-supporting, nourishing properties for this everything bowl.

Don’t be discouraged by the length of the ingredient list. Most of them are easy to find in your grocery store, farmers market, or online store, and as mentioned, you can eliminate anything you may not have on hand or can’t find easily.
