WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE BUDDHA BOWL INGREDIENTS?

My favorite ingredients for a good Buddha Bowl are mushrooms, tofu, quinoa, and spinach.  But pretty much anything can go into a Buddha Bowl.  Make it your own, make it special, make it healthy, and enjoy every bite!  Below is the recipe for the bowl Snarky made, which is pretty darn good, so go ahead and copy her bowl if you’d like.  You won’t be disappointed.

RECIPE:  That Snarky Vegan Girl’s Buddha Bowl

INGREDIENTS (for sauté)

• 1 block firm or extra firm tofu, preferably pressed with a “tofu press” available on Amazon: http://amzn.to/2veAW0E
• 1 – 2 handfuls of raw broccoli
• 4 whole mushrooms, sliced
• 1 c rice, (your choice)
• 2 c spinach or spinach & kale mixture

INGREDIENTS (for dressing)

• 1/4 c hummus (store bought or make your own if you’re not lazy like me)
• hot sauce, to taste  (I used chipotle red pepper)
• water (enough to achieve desired consistency of the hummus)
• 3 Tbsp nutritional yeast
• Bragg’s aminos, to taste

DIRECTIONS  (for dressing)

1. In a small bowl combine about two heaping tablespoons of hummus
2. Slowly add some water and stir until you get the desired consistency. Add additional water, as needed, so it’s similar to pourable dressing.
3. Add Bragg’s
4. Mix in nutritional yeast (or more if desired)
5. Add hot sauce
6. Mix until thoroughly blended
7. Set aside for now

DIRECTIONS (for sauté)
