Layer it up!

There is no ‘right’ way to build a power bowl, just aim for a variety colours, textures and flavours. Build the base with something hearty like a cooked grain, roasted vegetable and fresh leafy greens. 

Top with an assortment of crunchy vegetables that are vibrant in colour, such as purple cabbage, carrots and broccoli. 

Don’t forget the toppings – this is the really fun part where you can mix up the flavours for a really great experience! Add something rich and creamy like our No Yolking™ – Et Tu Caesar Dressing or sliced ripe avocado, something crunchy like spicy roasted chickpeas or walnuts, something sweet like golden raisins and add a little tang from a fresh lemon wedge, to balance it all out. 

Don’t overthink it, be creative and sprinkle in whatever is on hand in the fridge and in the pantry.

Tip: Bowls are the ultimate make-ahead entrée. Layer the ingredients in single portion containers to have lunches and dinners ready and waiting in the fridge.
