Green goddess bowl, a delicious and super healthy entrée with quinoa, edamame beans, veggies, seeds and chimichurri sauce. It only requires 30 minutes and 7 ingredients!
We shared with you a Buddha bowl recipe in 2015 because it was so popular. I’ve seen many bloggers posting goddess bowl recipes lately, so here it is our plant-based version.
I think they’re basically the same, a bowl packed with simple, pure food like grains, legumes, veggies, seeds or nuts, usually served with some dressing or sauce.
If you have quinoa leftovers in your fridge, this recipe is just perfect for you, but you can also make it from scratch. I also added edamame beans, broccoli, cucumber, pumpkin seeds and our oil-free chimichurri sauce, but any other grain, legume, veggie, seed or sauce will do.
This green goddess bowl is also perfect to eat on the go and is a super satisfying and hearty dish. You really need it in your life!
