It’s called a nourishing bowl for a reason! Filled with veggies, plant-based protein and healthy fats that your body will thank you for. The best thing is, you can add in absolutely any vegetables you like. We’ve chosen j apanese pumpkin, broccoli and cauliflower for a variety of flavours but it is also great with crispy kale, sweet potato and brussel sprouts. We also include organic tempeh or tofu - remembering that soy products are amongst the most important to buy organic to ensure they are not genetically modified - for a protein boost, and an avocado for a good dose of healthy fats.
