We like eating Buddha Bowl with easily prepped foods.

What’s in a Buddha Bowl?

Typically, Buddha bowls are comprised of these basic elements:

* Starch/Grain
* Vegetables
* Protein
* Healthy Fat
* Dressing

Our typical Buddha bowls include brown rice, quinoa, or another grain or a starchy vegetable like sweet potato hash or butternut squash.

The more colorful your vegetables and the more you 'eat the rainbow' the more nutrient-dense your meal will be.

Buddha bowls often use plant-based protein sources, such as beans, nuts or seeds. Other options can include a boiled egg or meat or fish.

Some healthy fat options include minimally-processed oils, such as extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or some sliced avocado.

Check out our Wishing Wellness Blog for recipes for some of our favorite heathy dressings such as: Dairy Free Cucumber, Cashew Yogurt or Chimichuri Sauce.

It's also a good idea to add fermented vegetables.
They are rich in antioxidants, phytonutrients and probiotics, which can help improve digestion, immune function and heart health.

Side note: if you are struggling with gut dysbiosis or #SIBO, it’s best to avoid fermented foods until your infection clears, as they can cause digestive distress.
