Recipe: Buddha Bowls

To eat simple and fuel your body in the New Year, you simply must try a Buddha Bowl! “Buddha Bowls” are also called Power Bowls or Glory Bowls…and there are probably other fancy names we haven’t seen. This blog post by Michaela Bentley from Live Well Live Green explains the “formula” for creating them. The fun thing is that you can get super creative or just work with what you’ve got in your fridge.

Here are some suggestions:

• Greens – spinach, arugula, kale, spring greens
• Starches – quinoa, barley, brown rice, sweet potatoes
• Veggies – broccoli, brussels sprouts, bell peppers, beets
• Protein – beans, lentils, tofu
• Toppings – avocado, nuts, seeds, chili peppers
• Dressing – hummus, oil & vinegar, peanut dressing
