Autumn Buddha Bowl

"To keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear." - Buddha

Happy Monday All! 

Today I made an awesome vegan Sante fe salad with a peanut lime vinaigrette that I really wanted to share but I was so hungry when I got home from work that I couldn't take the time to take pictures. All good I had extra dressing left over so I will definitely be making it again this week to share with you guys. 

In the mean time enjoy my super delicious Buddha bowl recipe. 

This bowl is not only really yummy, but it's filling and healthy as well. So many nutrients are packed in this meal, making it a good meal for an athlete. You also don't have to follow the exact ingredients, feel free to take away or add whatever you like. This is just what I put in mine.
