Hi lovies!
<3
I had some brown rice ready in the fridge & felt like spicing it up so I threw it into a skillet with lots of turmeric, black pepper, sea salt + a splash of apple cider vinegar & sautéed it lightly just long enough for the rice to turn yellow because… TURMERIC.
I threw the cooked turmeric rice into a bowl with greens, chickpeas, radish, organic salsa, raw almonds, sprouts, tigernuts + lots of dried herbs & there you have it… another perfect rainbow on my plate!
I generally have 1/3 to 1/2 cup cooked grains, depending how hungry I am.

Here’s what you need to make a bowl that looks something like this; the ingredients don’t have to be the same nor do the portions, it’s really just all about putting something together that your body loves & that makes you feel good!
▫️any greens of your choice
▫️sprouts / micro greens for extra antioxidants + greens
▫️salsa, pesto, tahini, hummus, Dijon, cashew cheese or any other dip, spread or dressing
▫️some crunchy veggies
▫️animal or plant-based protein source
▫️whole or sprouted grains
▫️fats, in the form of nuts, seeds or healthy oils
▫️toppings: nutritional yeast, dried herbs, other spices, sesame seeds or a blend
