HEALING EARTH BOWL
Slow-Cooked Soup of Rice, Quinoa, Dal, Ghee, Spices, & Kimchi
OVERVIEW
A slow-simmered, deeply grounding healing soup made from pre-rinsed white rice, fluffy quinoa, and yellow dal. Infused with ghee, avocado oil, turmeric, and cumin for gut balance, then enriched with baby carrots, organic mixed vegetables, a splash of almond milk, and mushroom adaptogen powder. Topped with a bright spoonful of probiotic-rich kimchi before serving.
This is more than food—this is a bowl of gentle fire and deep restoration.
INGREDIENTS
Base Grains & Legumes
• 1/2 cup pre-rinsed white basmati rice
• 1/4 cup rinsed tri-color or white quinoa
• 1/3 cup rinsed yellow moong dal
Fats & Flavor
• 1.5 tbsp organic ghee (gluten-free certified)
• 1 tbsp organic avocado oil
• Pinch pink Himalayan salt (to taste)
• Cracked black pepper (to taste)
• 1/2 tsp turmeric
• 1 tsp ground cumin
Liquid
• 3 cups water (add more as needed during cook)
• 1 cup organic chicken broth (or veggie broth)
• 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (adds creaminess without heaviness)
Veggies & Add-ins
• 1 heaping cup shredded mixed vegetables (zucchini, cabbage, bell pepper, etc.)
• 1 cup whole baby carrots
• Pinch of chia seeds (for fiber and omega-3s)
• 2 pinches medicinal mushroom powder (cordyceps, lion’s mane, or reishi preferred)
Topping (post-cook)
• 1–2 spoonfuls of organic kimchi (probiotic kick, digestion boost)
PREPARATION
1. Rinse & Soak:
Rinse quinoa, rice, and yellow dal under cool water until the water runs clear. Let soak for 15–20 minutes, then drain.
2. Sauté & Infuse:
In a heavy-bottomed soup pot or slow cooker insert, warm ghee and avocado oil on medium heat. Add cumin, turmeric, black pepper, and pink salt. Sauté until aromatic (about 1 minute).
3. Build the Base:
Add soaked grains, dal, shredded veggies, baby carrots, broth, almond milk, and water. Stir gently.
4. Power Boost:
Stir in chia seeds and mushroom healing powder.
5. Simmer:
Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 90 minutes or more, checking periodically and adding water/broth as needed to maintain a soupy, stew-like consistency.
6. Final Texture:
Once grains are soft, dal is broken down, and the soup has a creamy body—remove from heat and let sit 5–10 mins covered.
TO SERVE
Ladle into deep ceramic bowls.
Top each with a generous spoon of kimchi.
Optional: drizzle of extra ghee or avocado oil on top for a finishing touch.
