Buddha bowls may be associated with “wellness”, but for me they’ve always been a joyful way to eat a balanced meal while conveniently using up any odds and ends languishing in the fridge. The perfect bowl has a combination of at least four elements: cooked grains, protein, veggies and herbs, with a zippy dressing to tie them all together; I usually also add pickles or condiments for extra interest. Your bowls can take inspiration from all over the globe, and need never be boring or repetitive. Grab a fork and tuck in.
