Buddha Breakfast Bowl

buddha bowl 2This is one of my favorite recipes because it is delicious, easy to make and you can make enough for several days. Oh yeah, and it’s super good for you! 🙂  I like to have it for breakfast but it is really good for any meal. The triple alliteration was just too good to pass up. Credit for this recipe goes to one of my favorite yoga teachers Elena Brower

  • Cook up quinoa, brown rice or any other grain according to the package.
  • Lightly steam kale or other leafy greens.
  • Add any other veggies that are in season to your grains and greens. Pictured is roasted butternut squash but I have added broccoli, zucchini, sweet potato, avocado, cauliflower.
  • Some grilled or baked tempeh makes it a little more hearty.
  • Top with lemon-miso dressing, sesame seeds, seaweed flakes, tapatio, etc.
  • Have fun, mix it up, make it your own!

Lemon-Miso Dressing: caution this stuff is amazing and you may want to put it on everything!!

  • Equal parts (50-150ml depending on how much you want to make) fresh squeezed lemon juice and oil of choice (I usually use olive or grapeseed)
  • One or two heaping spoonfuls of miso paste (white or yellow seem to work the best)
  • I make it in a mason jar and just shake it up
  • You can mix up the citrus that you use as well. I’m pretty partial to lemon though.

*organic is best for all the ingredients, especially the kale and soy products.

I store the ingredients in glass tupperware and make up batches throughout the week. YUM!
