Buddha Bowls Are Easy & Delicious

Are you kind of lazy?

Do you like healthy foods but struggle to put together meals that are exciting?

Have you heard of Buddha Bowls?!

A buddha bowl is a yummy meal in which you get all your flavors and food groups put together in a delicious mix. And in a bowl of course. Preferably a BIG bowl!



Here's how to put one together:


Start with a base of WHOLE GRAINS or STARTCHY VEGGIES (cooked)

•  rice, quinoa, couscous, sweet potato, squash

Next is BEANS aka PROTEIN

• any kind of beans, lentils, tofu, or tempeh

Then GREENS

• kale, spinach, collards, chard, romaine, and any kind of sprouts  

And VEGGIES (cooked or raw)

• tomato, avocado, peppers, mushrooms,  broccoli, artichokes, etc

Spinkle with HERBS & SPICES

• parsley, cilantro, basil, green onions, ginger, cayenne, nutritional yeast, and I like to add flax meal or hemp hearts here

Top it off with DRESSING or SAUCE

• tahini, miso dressing, any vineager, lemon or lime, tamari, and how about saurkraut and some of its juice!

Buddha bowls are a great way to use whats in your fridge into a new work of art each time. My favorite ingredients on mine are the tempeh and the miso dressing that I buy at the farmer's market. Find your favorites, mix it up, taste and learn!
