 Photo by: The Garlic Diaries Today's recipe comes from The Garlic Diaries. I've been out of town for 11 days for a certification course, which created some issues with staying on plan while eating, especially since a lot of the meals were provided to us by vendors. 12 hours of sitting in a classroom for 9 days can lead one to make some not great food decisions!
So now that I'm back home, my body is seriously ready to get back on track with my nutrition. I've been craving some veggies, so this recipe popped out while I was browsing Pinterest. The creamy onion sauce topping the roasted veggies and rice really rounded out the dish. I highly recommend this recipe!
