Making food healthy and looking delicious is the challenge faced by modern cuisine. Moreover, bowl meals do it perfectly, combining a balanced blend of nutrients and incredible attractiveness. Treating yourself to such food is a real pleasure.

What is a bowl meal?

In general, a bowl meal is almost any food served in a deep dish. It is not a specific recipe, but a concept of combining different products together. That’s why you can find anything in a bowl meal: cereals with greens and veggies, or yogurt mixed with fruits and berries.

However, a bowl meal has its own history and philosophy. According to legend, the Buddha had a deep bowl that he carried with him at all times. Every citizen he met could put food into the bowl: poor people put rice and beans, farmers put herbs and vegetables, and rich people put exotic fruits and nuts. The result was a fresh, balanced “Buddha-bowl meal” that was pleasant to the body and soul.

Originally, the bowl meal was a vegetarian meal, but over time, eggs, cheese, seafood and meat were added. The meal idea allows you to experiment easily with a range of ingredients, creating healthy blends that are satisfying to the eye and the flavor.

How to cook a bowl meal?
