1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup beansprouts (optional)
1/2 avocado, sliced
2 tablespoons hemp seeds (optional) Umami Mushrooms
8 ounces portobello mushrooms
1 tablespoon low-sodium tamari
1/2 tablespoon high-heat cooking oil

Instructions

Step 1: Combine the Sesame Vinaigrette ingredients in a jar and blend with an immersion blender (or stir by hand) until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Flip the mushrooms over halfway through cooking time.
Step 3: Meanwhile, dice the cucumbers and steamed beets. Toss together the salad greens and basil leaves.
Serve: To assemble, divide the greens-basil blend into the bowls. Top each with a mound of warm rice, warm mushrooms, beets, cucumbers, optional beansprouts, and protein of choice. Layer the avocado slices on top and sprinkle with optional hemp seeds. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and enjoy.
