Nourish Bowl

Plant-based Nourish Bowl

A bowl of colourful goodness to delight the senses and make you feel truly nourished and nurtured by nature.

Nourish bowls should feature on the menu every week (if not more often). They are such a wonderful way to get your 5+ vegetables each day, eat the colours of the rainbow for phytonutrients and antioxidants, a great way to boost your nutrient intake and are a tasty (taste-filled) source of:

  • whole, fibre rich carbohydrates

  • quality proteins

  • healthy fats

Nourish bowls are so easy to make! Every nourish bowl is different and will depend on what you have in your garden, fridge or freezer at the moment.

Step 1:

Beautiful bases could be:
- cooked brown rice
- cooked quinoa (seasoned with Massels Chicken Stock)
- cooked buckwheat
- or any other grain you enjoy.

Step 2:

Choose a selection of tantalising topping vegetables. Some ideas are:

- salad e.g. lettuce, grated carrot, grated beetroot, cucumber, tomato, capsicums, sprouts, fresh herbs, etc.
- roast vegetable e.g. potato, kumura, pumpkin, parsnip, carrot, beetroot, onion, garlic, etc.
- stir-fry vegetables e.g. carrot, broccolli, beans, capsicums, cabbage, onion, garlic, asparagus, cauliflower, etc.
- steamed vegetables e.g. spinach, kale, bokchoy, edamame, peas, sweet corn, etc.

Step 3:

The protein or savoury component will vary depending on your preference.

Plant based options: falafel, grilled seasoned tofu, black beans, chickpeas, etc.
Vegetarian options: grilled haloumi, egg
Meat or fish options: salmon, grilled fish, chicken, steak.

Step 4:

Top with a spoonful of your favourite hummus, or Greek coconut yoghurt.
