Broccoli Rapini Bowl
Gluten-Free
Heavenly Taste in One Little Bowl!
Written by Gayle
Rapini, Raab, or Rabe... Whatever you call it, it's delicious. A relative of broccoli, rapini resembles broccoli, but does not form large firm heads. The buds, stems and leaves are edible, and delicious. I love how it looks and tastes in a vegetable medley, but it is great as a stand-alone as well. Here's a great recipe that works for lunch, dinner, a side dish, or a healthy snack!
Ingredients
1 8-oz package of soba or other noodles (buckwheat noodles make this gluten-free!)
2 bunches of organic broccoli rapini
4 cloves of organic garlic, pressed or finely chopped
1 generous TBSP organic ginger, peeled and finely chopped
Sesame oil
Red pepper flakes, to taste (start with about 1/4 tsp)
1 tsp salt
5 organic green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped organic cilantro
1 TBSP sesame seeds
Sauce -- combine in a small bowl:
3 TBSP tamari sauce (reduced sodium if desired)
2 TBSP rice wine vinegar
2 garlic cloves, pressed or finely chopped
1 tsp dark agave syrup
1 TBSP sesame oil
Juice of 1 organic lime
2 bunches of organic broccoli rapini
4 cloves of organic garlic, pressed or finely chopped
1 generous TBSP organic ginger, peeled and finely chopped
Sesame oil
Red pepper flakes, to taste (start with about 1/4 tsp)
1 tsp salt
5 organic green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped organic cilantro
1 TBSP sesame seeds
Sauce -- combine in a small bowl:
3 TBSP tamari sauce (reduced sodium if desired)
2 TBSP rice wine vinegar
2 garlic cloves, pressed or finely chopped
1 tsp dark agave syrup
1 TBSP sesame oil
Juice of 1 organic lime
Directions
Cook noodles according to package directions, then drain and rinse with cool water. Be careful not to overcook.
Wash the rapini, trim and then cut into 2-3 inch pieces. Include the leaves.
Warm 2 TBSP sesame oil in a large frying pan, then add the garlic and ginger, salt, and red pepper flakes. Stir briefly.
Immediately add the rapini, and stir-fry until tender-crisp.
Add the green onions for the last 1-2 minutes of stir-frying.
Add the drained noodles and the sauce to the rapini, and stir about one minute until heated through.
Add the chopped cilantro.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve immediately with additional crushed red pepper.
Nothing like a noodle bowl for a healthy meal!
