This is a great meal when you don't have a lot of time to prepare. Also, I am trying to incorporate the jasmine rice and nama shoyu into my meals for my program this week. It's challenging and I'm finding it hard to eat raw all the time with the rice requirement. For lunch I simply cut up some raw celery and carrots and serve with rice and raw sesame seeds, but when dinner rolls around, I tend to lean towards cooked, but crunchy veggies. 

I had some fennel that I needed to use and this is what I came up with. It was really easy and surprisingly delicious. We were both totally satisfied and full.
4 carrots

1 -2 fennel bulb

1 -2 cups eggplant chunks

2 med zucchini, chunks

2 yellow onions, chopped

2 cups broccoli florets

salt and pepper to taste

pinch of rosemary, crushed in fingers

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare the fennel bulb as directed here.  I cut each half of the bulb into quarters.  In a large bowl, massage veggies with olive oil, salt, pepper and a hint of rosemary.

I cooked my rice in mushroom broth, instead of water. For each 1/2 cup of cooked rice, I added 3 tsp of Ohsawa nama shoyu. 

Roast veggies for 15 minutes. Stir. Roast another 10-15 minutes and serve over rice.
