Love yo'self bowl
C’mon its all time that we embraced ourselves and worshipped the bodies we were given! This bowl, is a firm favourite of mine and something I could eat for a late breakfast, lunch or dinner quite happily. I call it the ‘love yo’self’ bowl because of all the immune boosting herbs and spices rich in anti-oxidants and the superfoods kale, quinoa, avocado and chickpeas offering fibre, protein, healthy fats, essential vitamins and minerals and further anti-oxidants (to name but a few!)
It helps that ‘eating your greens’ isn’t such a chore anymore with this plate of healthy goodness!
You will need:
1 brown onion
1 clove garlic
sprinkling of chilli flakes
2 cups of roughly chopped kale
10 asparagus spears, heads and ¾ stalk chopped
sprinkling of turmeric
sprinkling of cinnamon
1 ½ cups of cooked quinoa
100g of cooked or tinned chickpeas
4 eggs** (Vegans can use hummus see note)
sprinkling of sesame seeds
1 nori square
seasoning
1 tbsp olive or coconut oil
1-2 tpsp tamari
Method:
Cook the quinoa (1 cup of quinoa for 3 cups of water, until absorbed)
Boil eggs in a pan until they are how you like them, peel them and leave to one side (I like mine medium boiled)
Fry off the onion, garlic and chilli in a pan or wok with the olive/coconut oil
Add in the kale and asparagus
Add 1 tbsp of tamari and the turmeric and cinnamon, stir-fry for a minute
Add the cooked quinoa and chickpeas and the remaining tamari
Transfer to dishes and top with the eggs, sesame seeds and slice the nori sheet on top
Season to taste
NB: For the vegans out there this is also really tasty with my home-made hummus dolloped on top instead of the eggs…mmmm! Enjoy x x
