As the story goes, the religious leader Buddha used to carry a bowl with him. As we walked, he’d accept a donation of food and eat it all at the end of the day.
Hence, what we know now as the Buddha Bowl — a vegetarian bowl packed with nutritious veggies, carbs, and plant proteins and typically served cold.
This buddha bowl recipe contains some of our favorite veggies: romaine lettuce, edamame, broccoli, and (of course) avocado. With Asian style dressing and a bit of sesame oil at the end, this recipe is an incredibly nutritious meal that’s perfect for eating on-the-go or for a satisfying end to the day.
