Buddha Bowls
Buddha Bowls: 100 Nourishing One-Bowl Meals | Kelli Foster
3 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
Beautiful and inspiring one-dish meals in a bowl! Buddha bowls, occasionally called bliss bowls, nourish bowls, or power bowls, are the ultimate in one-dish meals. You start with a base of whole grains, rice, noodles, or legumes. Then you layer on a generous assortment of cooked or raw vegetables. Finally, you top the veggies with a boost of protein and then a dressing, sauce, or broth. Buddha bowls are an easy, healthy meal that can be ready in minutes and that you can have for breakfast, lunch, or dinneror, if you like, all three! The Buddha bowl concept is loosely based on guidance from Chinese medicine: a meal should have vegetables, protein, and grain. Typically, in a Buddha bowl there is a high ratio of ingredients to broth or sauce and the ingredients are left whole or in large pieces, and not blended, minced, or pureed. Although it is Asian in inspiration, a Buddha bowl can be made with a variety of ingredients from just about anywhere on the planet. Kelli Foster, who writes about food for the popular website The Kitchn, serves up in these pages an amazing variety of Buddha bowl ideas, each one vibrant with color, alive with flavor, and oh-so-comforting to eat. Can you think of a heartier way to start the day than with a Blackberry Millet Breakfast Bowl, a Coconut Quinoa Breakfast Bowl, or a Chai-Spiced Multigrain Porridge Bowl, just three among many breakfast bowl ideas? Later in the day, for cozy meals with loved ones, how about Warm Autumn Chicken and Wild Rice Bowls, Sesame Tuna Bowls, or Lamb Kebab Bowls? For company, Lentil and Smoked Salmon Nicoise Bowls or Miso Noodle Bowls with Stir-Fried Beef will delight your guests. There are many vegan recipes, too, from Cauliflower Falafel Power Bowls to Spicy Sesame Tofu and Rice Bowls and beyond. A special chapter on fruit bowls has ideas for power-snacking, as well as for meals. Buddha bowls are elegant in appearance and flavor, but surprisingly easy to makea perfect marriage of convenience and good taste. If you haven't tried them yet, now you have a great reason!

When I get recipe books from NetGalley I usually screenshot the recipes that look good. This is the first book I‘ve actually decided to buy after reading a review review copy. It all sounds so good! I see that a couple of people agree with me here on Litsy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Laura317 That looks delish! I‘ll check it out. 6y

4⭐️ Man this looks yummy. I wish there was a lot more pictures. The pictures that were there was so mouth watering. I like the ideas, and I like how the author introduced buddha bowls and gave the reader a bit of their history. I really love her idea of “in between” time, where she says don‘t prep everything at once, but prep it as you need it; in between while the rice is cooking do so and so, etc

So many great and endlessly customizable Buddha bowl recipes in this book! I typically like a grain base for bowls, but I wanted to try something different. This Vietnamese inspired recipe features zoodles, carrots, cucumbers, basil, mint, peanuts, and tofu, with a tangy and bright nuoc cham dressing. Yum! #netgalley
