Green Bowl – Lunchtime Adventures
A green bowl of lunchtime adventure goodness! This green bowl is crunchy and soft, salty and sweet, energizing and calming, monochromatic but a rainbow of nutrients – oh yeah! It’s got everything! This green bowl has just the right amount of complementary ingredients for fabulous satisfaction, satiety and totally worthy of a great big healthy pat on the back after consumption. (Speaking of pats-on-the-back, one of my teachers used to say, “You want a pat on the back? Hang on, let me just go get a cow…” Cheers, sir, feeling so acknowledged right now… come to think of it, that’s probably a big ol’ bowl of green too – we love our grass-fed cows… but let’s not go there…)
While this bowl is a great option for all my vegan and vegetarian friends, the awesome fats in the avocado make it filling, enjoyable and sustaining for non-vegos alike – don’t knock it till you’ve tried it my meat-loving-mates. If it’s really ‘not enough’ or as an individual, you’re requiring even more protein and/or energy, you could absolutely add some salmon or chicken to this, which would team up very nicely!
