The Buddha Bowl Revamped!!

After being on a wedding high for the last year…I have finally come back down to reality. Taking a step back from wedding arts & crafts and taking the opportunity to revisit my passions. One of which gets me super excited, is creating a colourful dish, that is nourishes the body full of healthy goodness !! This weeks I wanted to share with you the famous Buddha Bowl but with a twist!!  I know eating vegan/vegetarian is not for everyone..or so you think;) This journey has been a slow one for me…but with the help of pallet, pleasing dishes…how can I not!!?? Rich in vitamins, minerals, omega fats, electrolytes, blood cleansers, anti-inflammatories…the list is endless when it comes to checklist of this meal!! I get excited thinking about the benefits each bite has to offer to our health!! Move over carnivores, this dish is taking centre stage!!

I decided to make this blog a little more personal and did it in “Vlog” format!!  This is something I am not very good at or comfortable with…but the only way to get better is to try, try and try again!! Enjoy!!
