Ingredients
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup cooked brown rice or quinoa
2 tablespoons white miso paste
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 cup shredded red cabbage
1 cup cucumber slices
1 avocado, sliced
1 cup edamame
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
2 green onions, sliced
Salt to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Toss the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil and a light pinch of salt, then spread them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
3. Roast for 15 minutes.
4. While the sweet potatoes roast, whisk together the white miso paste, soy sauce, maple syrup, rice vinegar, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic in a small bowl until smooth.
5. Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven, toss them gently with the miso glaze, and return them to the oven for 10 to 15 minutes more until tender and caramelized.
6. Divide the cooked brown rice or quinoa among four bowls.
7. Top each bowl with the miso glazed sweet potatoes, shredded red cabbage, cucumber slices, avocado, and edamame.
8. Finish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, then serve right away.
Notes
Roast the sweet potatoes in a single layer so they caramelize instead of steam.
White miso gives the bowl a balanced savory flavor without overpowering the vegetables.
For meal prep, store the avocado separately and slice it just before serving.
