Grab Your Fork And Dig Into These Healthy Meals In A Bowl
Until some years ago healthy bowl recipes were not a part of the Indian culinary scene. But ever since we realised how versatile and absolutely delicious these recipes can be, the bowl recipe food trend picked up in India as well.
For me, the best part about these healthy meals in a bowl is that you can literally do almost anything with them. Make your own combinations, keep things nutritious and you are set. Not to mention, they are a feast to the eyes and the Instagram feed as well, isn’t it?
Organise get togethers with your gang and try some of my favourites to kick off your healthy meals in a bowl.
1. Whole Oats Flakes Power Bowl
This gastronomical delight bowl has everything nutritious for your body and soul. It packs whole oat flakes as a carbohydrates source and peanuts and mixed legumes for the proteins. Plus, you can put plenty of veggies for vitamins and minerals. Remember to soak the legumes overnight and pressure cook in fresh water with a little salt. The oat flakes can be soaked for 10 minutes and cooked with veggies for about 5 minutes. Later, combine all the ingredients in a bowl and dig in.
