Instructions
 

Millet

  • First, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Then, bring the water, millet, and a pinch of salt to boil in a pot on the stove. Reduce heat to low, and simmer 20-25 minutes or until millet is al dente.
  • When done, fluff with a fork and set aside.

Roasted Vegetables

  • First, prep your vegetables - cut the 1/2 cauliflower into florets, cut the brussels sprouts in half, and cut the russet potato into 3/4-inch pieces.
  • Lay veggies out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and add on a small drizzle of olive oil. Then, add on the salt and spices, and mix with your hands until vegetables are evenly coated.
  • Bake veggies in the oven for 30-35 minutes.

Jalapeño Dressing

  • While veggies are roasting, make the dressing.
  • First, cut the jalapeño in half and remove the ribs and seeds.
  • Then, add all dressing ingredients into a blender and blend on high until smooth and creamy.

Putting It All Together

  • Assemble your bowls - add on a layer each of kale, millet, and the roasted veggies. Drizzle with as much of the dressing as you like. Serve with avocado and hemp seeds, if desired.
  • Enjoy!
