Buddha Bowl

How To Make Buddha Bowls

‘Buddha Bowl’ is a catchy name for a simple concept: a one-dish meal that’s made by piling a healthy combination of whole grains, vegetables, legumes, and a dressing sauce in a single-serving bowl or coconut shell bowl. Loaded with plant-based color, texture and flavor, Buddha Bowls are a delicious way to enjoy a well-rounded, plant-based meal with little effort.

A Buddha Bowl is usually made up of the following key components including: a grain base, a protein, vegetables/greens, healthy fats, and a sauce and optional toppings.

Seek out whole grains, such as brown rice, farro, buckwheat, millet, rye berries, black rice, wheat berries or quinoa.

An easy approach is to pick one grain for the week and make a big batch on Sunday. Cooked grains last 5 to 6 days in the fridge.
