Method
 

Coconut Rice Preparation
  1. Prepare the coconut rice by adding the basmati rice, light coconut milk, and coconut water to a rice cooker. Cook per the directions on the rice cooker. Once the rice is done, fluff with a fork before serving.
  2. Alternatively, for stove top coconut rice, add basmati rice, light coconut milk, and coconut water to a pot and stir together. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes until liquid is evaporated. Fluff with a fork before serving.
Mango Salsa Preparation
  1. Prepare the mango avocado salsa by adding the diced mango, avocado, red onion, and red bell pepper to a medium mixing bowl. Toss together until well combined. Place in the fridge until ready to use.
Jerk Mushrooms Preparation
  1. Rinse and dry the mushrooms, then add to a mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of oil, the jerk seasoning, and toss together until the mushrooms are well coated. Let marinate for 30 minutes.
  2. Heat the neutral cooking oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add the marinated mushrooms. Cook for about 10 minutes, occasionally stirring until nicely browned. Remove from heat.
Assembling the Dish
  1. Assemble the bowl by adding the coconut rice and topping it with the jerk mushrooms, mango avocado salsa, and additional chopped cilantro.

Notes

Feel free to swap out the mushrooms for your favorite protein, like tofu or chicken, and experiment with different fruits in the salsa. Lime juice instead of olive oil can add a zesty kick too.
