That Sorghum Bowl with the Super Grains
Sorghum is one of those grains that I love, because it’s lectin-free and delicious. In fact, I’ll sometimes pop sorghum in a pan like popcorn and eat it while watching a movie. But for this recipe, balancing it with creamy avocado and tangy pickled veggies is the way to go.
SORGHUM BOWL INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon Olive Oil ½ small Yellow Onion, minced 1 clove Garlic, minced ½ cup Quorn Crumbles 1 cup Cooked Sorghum ¼ cup Pickled Carrots ¼ cup Pickled Beets ¼ cup Pickled Onions ¼ cup Pickled Radishes ½ Avocado, diced
