If you are looking for an easy to make, nutritious meal, look no further! This dish is packed full of nutrient dense whole foods annnnnd you need just 1 pot to cook the meal!
I am a strong believer that food should provide you with energy, not send to the couch for a nap. Just take a peek at the ingredient list (go ahead, take a look...). See what I am talking about?! This bowl is a powerhouse!
We continue to adjust our ingredients, using whatever vegetables we have on hand, however, the proportions remain the same.
When I am short on time, I prepare this in advance. Then when hungry, all we need to do is grab, heat, and eat. A nutritious meal in minutes!
