Notes

  • Serve with grilled marinated tofu if desired. 
  • Cook the rice in advance and reheat it, or serve the bowl cold.
  • If you don't like spicy, omit the Sriracha from the dressing recipe for a tasty creamy soy sauce dressing. 
  • For a nut-free sauce, substitute the cashews for silken tofu or white beans.
  • Try mandarine oranges instead of mango if mango isn't in season or you don't like it. 
  • The bowl can be served hot or cold. 
  • Buy shelled edamame as a time saver, which is found in the produce section or the frozen vegetable section of the grocery store. 
  • You do not need to boil or soak the cashews if you have a high-quality blender. 
  • However, if you do not have a good blender, soak the cashews overnight, or a shortcut is to boil them for 10 minutes and drain them before blending.
