Nourish Buddha Bowl with Harissa Tahini Dressing
This Nourish Buddha Bowl is filled with nourishing and delicious veggies and grains and topped with an incredible tahini dressing!
Four words: My. Husband. Devoured. This. I took one bowl, he took the other, and he had to stop talking to me to get into his food. “This is just SO good!” That’s music to my ears, friends.
So what exactly is a nourish buddha bowl? A buddha bowl consists of greens, grains, protein, fats and usually a delicious dressing on top of it all. This bowl will not only leave you feeling full, but completely satisfied!
We really enjoyed this bowl so much that I am definitely making it for lunch tomorrow, and the day after that. It’s the perfect meal planning dish since it’s all separate components coming together to make one delicious lunch or dinner and so incredibly versatile. No carrots? Sure, use broccolini. No chickpeas? Use sweet potatoes. You can switch and swap this bowl out as much as your heart desires. For right now, I adore this particular combination.
So, now you can dig into and devour your nourish buddha bowl!
Save me some, please?
