Serves 2
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked brown rice or quinoa
- 1 small head of broccoli, torn into bite-sized florets

Preparation
1. To make the dressing: whisk all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
2. Heat oven to 425ºF degrees. Place broccoli florets on a parchment lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 15 minutes until slightly browning on the edges.
