Plant-Based Buddha Bowls: 100 Recipes for Nourishing One-Bowl Vegan Meals

Plant Based Buddha Bowls by Kelli Foster 100 Recipes for Nourishing One-Bowl Vegan Meals I have long enjoyed Buddha Bowls as an easy way to prepare a quick meal. As I become more and more vegan I look forward to changing up the more common bowls I make, and this book has provided a great deal of inspiration. It has also made me lust after many of the beautiful bowls in the photographs and wonder how many I might be able to find when I am able to go shopping again! The book introduces what Buddha Bowls are and then provides several recipes in each chapter. Chapters are: * Sauces and Extras: some new and some old favorites with ideas for where to try them out * Breakfast Bowls: unusual and varied * Vegetable Power Bowls: unusual and inspiring combinations * Rice and Grain Bowls: intriguing and colorful * Lentil and Bean Bowls: hearty and healthy * Noodle Bowls: Asian inspired (would have enjoyed some others) * Hummus Bowls: plain plus others * Brothy Bowls: different than expected * Sweet Bowls: Made me salivate The Lebanese, Mexican and Italian flavors I gravitate to when making bowls at home were not readily apparent but there were a few Mediterranean options included. I would have liked nutritional information for each recipe and some substitutions for less readily available items but all in all this was a delightful and delicious mental trip through recipes that inspired me to try some new taste ideas when preparing my Buddha Bowl Lunches. Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group – Harvard Common Press for the ARC – This is my honest review. 4-5 Stars
