How to make a fun bowl

One of the advantages when making bowl food is you never get bored or tired of it. You can do so many variations: sweet, savory, you get the picture.

It’s not only delicious, nutritious, easy and will never disappoint. It’s also always beautiful to look at.  Just think of the colors, the presentation. Oh yes, feed your eyes.

So here’s a fun project for me and you.

How to make your custom bowl: start with the base, that can be rice, quinoa. Then choose proteins, like beans, lentils, maybe some greens.

Finally add your favorite toppings: avocado, nuts, and then top with more sauce.

But what the way I make my bowls most often is the lazy way. Just mix all the things together, top with more sauce, ready. With these hints you can make every fun bowl project.
