There is no clear definition as to what a Buddha bowl really is but it always looks like a wholesome, colourful and interesting way to eat your way to health in a novel way. And since there are no known set of rules, you can assemble it the way you want to with the ingredients you have at hand. I did just that and you can too :)

Ingredients

• Avocado Pulp: ½ cup
• Roasted Beetroot Dip: ½ cup
• Brinjal Slices: 3 or 4 (prepared as Begun Bhaja)
• Bell Pepper: ¼ cup (chopped, any colour)
• Yellow pumpkin: ½ cup (cubed)
• Mixed dry herbs: ½ tsp
• Spinach: ½ cup (shredded)
• Lime Juice: 2 tsp
• Gomashio: 1 tsp
• Rock salt: to taste
• Cold-pressed coconut oil: to grease pumpkin

Method

• Apply salt and oil to cubes of yellow pumpkin and bake in an oven at 200°C for 20 mins. Toss it around in between. Poke to check if cooked.
• Make Begun Bhaja and reserve 3-4 slices for the Buddha bowl
• Add chopped bell pepper to avocado pulp and season with salt and lime juice and set aside.
• Arrange all the components in a bowl or a plate and sprinkle with a generous round of Gomashio and a dash of lime and dig in.

Wellcure Tip:

• You can make a similar bowl with ingredients of your choice, like boiled beans, roasted sweet potatoes, roasted mushrooms or with only a mix of raw vegetables with different dips.
• If you have the components pre-made, it will take you less than 5 minutes to assemble a bowl.
