Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups vegetable stock (or chicken stock)
  • 1 cup uncooked wild rice
  • 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms, sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 medium carrots, diced
  • 2 ribs celery, diced
  • 1 large sweet potato, peeled and diced
  • 1 small white onion, peeled and diced
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 14-ounce can unsweetened coconut milk
  • 2 large handfuls of kale, roughly chopped
  • Fine sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Wash and dice all vegetables into uniform pieces.
  2. In a large pot over medium heat, add a splash of vegetable stock to prevent sticking. Sauté onion and garlic until fragrant (about 3-4 minutes), then add sliced mushrooms with a pinch of salt.
  3. Once softened, stir in carrots, celery, sweet potato, wild rice, bay leaf, Old Bay seasoning, and remaining stock. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low.
  4. Cover and simmer for about 30-40 minutes or until the wild rice is tender, stirring occasionally.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in coconut milk until fully blended. Add kale and allow it to wilt before serving.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as desired.
