Ingredients
1 tablespoon Neutrally flavored oil (such as coconut)
1 large Yellow onion (thinly sliced)
1 pound Brussels sprouts (cleaned and halved or quartered)
1/2 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
2 cloves Garlic (minced)
2 tablespoons Fresh minced ginger
3/4 pound Rutabaga (peeled and diced)
1 cup Carrot (sliced)
4 cups Vegetable broth
1 1/2 cups Chickpeas (rinsed and drained if using canned)
1/2 cup Coconut milk
Juice from 1 lime
Zest from half a lime
Salt to taste
Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Rice for serving

Step by Step Instructions
  1. Prepare vegetables as directed and preheat a 4 quart pot over medium-high heat.
  2. Saute the onion in the pot with oil and salt, then add and lightly sear the Brussels sprouts, stirring occasionally. Add the minced ginger and the red pepper flakes, mix, and let cook for 1 minute.
  3. Add the rutabaga, carrots and vegetable broth, then cover the pot and bring it to a boil.
  4. Once the mixture reaches a boil, reduce it down to a simmer and add the chickpeas and lime zest. Cook with the lid slightly ajar atop the pot for 5 minutes.
  5. Add the coconut milk, lime juice, and more salt if desired. Cook a bit longer to let the additions heat through, then serve with rice and garnished with fresh cilantro.
