Vegan Buddha Bowl with Green Goddess Dressing
“Sometimes noting really beats a good Buddha Bowl, packed with nourishing and colorful veggies it’s a simple way to get more than your five a day. The recipe is totally flexible, meaning you are free to use whatever veggies you like or have in your fridge that day, however I personally really like to always use avocado as it makes everything taste so much more indulgent, creamy and delicious. The dressing, however is the key - fresh, tangy and creamy, using a blend of Udo’s Choice Ultimate Oil which is rich in omegas 3,6,9 combined with the Beyond Greens powder for an alkaline boost!” – Happy Skin Kitchen
Bowl Ingredients:
1 avocado, peeled and cut into slices
Kale and Cress, finely sliced (Or greens of your choice)
150g brown rice (Or you can use grains of your choice - quinoa or buckwheat are good)
150 g cooked sweetcorn
6-8 radishe, sliced
Handful of finely sliced radicchio
Handful of finely sliced purple cabbage
1-2 carrots - sliced in ribbons or shredded
A handful or pomegranate seeds (optional)
A sprinkle of hemp seeds + any nuts or seeds of your choice
Dressing Ingredients:
1/4 cup of cashews soaked in water for at least 3 hours or overnight
A generous handful of coriander leaves
1/2 teaspoon of Udo’s Choice Beyond Greens
1 tablespoon of Udo’s Choice Ultimate Oil
juice of 1/2 lemon
Salt & pepper to taste
1 tablespoon of nutritional yeast
Method
- To build the bowl, place your grains at the bottom and add all the other vegetables on top, arranged as you like. TIP: If you are not used to eating raw greens slice them very finely and massage them with some olive oil, lemon juice and salt to make them easier to digest
- To make the dressing, simply place all the ingredients into a blender and blend until completely smooth and creamy. If your blender is struggling or you want a runnier consistency add a splash of water.
- Drizzle the dressing on top of the bowl and sprinkle with some seeds. If you have any leftover dressing store it in a jar or airtight container and it will keep for a couple of days.
