Power Up With Power Bowls

 Now that the schools from grammar to univeristy are opening up it's time to start think about nutritious meals that are easy to prepare but packed with good nutrition.This is where the power bowl comes in.It can be made for breakfast lunch or dinner. Whatever meal you make it for, it is satisfying and filling.

I 'm a big pan of any power bowl. Right now I like Tattooed Chef's plant based beef burrito bowl. it also comes in plant based chicken too. This has everything a  vegan burrito has, the plant based cheddar with corn and riced cauliflower with a jalapeno infused crema.

This is the chicken with comes with a salsa verde, plant based chicken and roasted corn.
               

This was pretty tasty and it made for amnfilling , good for you dinner. A  homemade power bowl could have allmof these ingredienta or it could have some of these. That's the beauty of them. Tasty combos can be created depending on everyone's taste/A breakfast one can be sweet with a base of chia seeds, various fruits and a good drizzle of honey or vanilla Greek yogurt. A savory breakfast bowl can have layers of hash browns. eggs and avocaodoes. Strips of turkey bacon can be put on top. A lunch or dinner one can have rice , chicken or shrimp and a  variety of multi colored veggies. Use those late season tomatoes and peppers along with fresh corn for color and vitamins.Dress with a simple viniagrette. A heartier one could include left over grilled steak and tomatoes over any kind of bean, such as a red kidneys. Drizzle any hot sauce and cotillo cream over it for a tasty Mexican vibe.If you want a true portein power bowl, think shrimp mixed with crab. Add green veggies like bell peppers and broccoli over rice or quinoa. Top with a lemony vinaigrette for flavor.

Power bowls come in handy during now busy days. They're perfect for any meal. Be creative along with being mindful about putting together one that packed with flavor and nutrition.
