Buddha Bowl
I was browsing through Pinterest the other day (which is one of the my favorite sports, hihihi), and I found this new trend called "buddha bowl", so I decided to give it a try.
Again this is a very easy recipe, done in no time, what may take long could be the red beats, but you can also get the can type.
This recipe yields 2 bowls.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup of fine bulgur (rinsed and drained)
2 tablespoons of pomegranate seeds
1 cup of cherry tomatoes (chopped)
1 tablespoon of dry mint
1 cup of red beats (cooked & chopped)
1 eggplant (sliced in eight)
12 asparagus sprigs (blanched)
1 avocado (sliced)
2 poached eggs
2 tablespoon of yogurt
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon of grapefruit juice
Olive oil
Directions:
1. Mix the bulgur with the pomegranate, add salt to taste.
2. Season the tomatoes with salt, pepper, mint and olive oil.
3. To the eggplant add a bit of salt on both sides and let rest 10 minutes so the internal liquid comes out. Pat dry with kitchen towel and pan fry with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
4. Season the asparagus with salt and pepper.
5. The dressing for this bowl will be a mix of the yogurt, salt and pepper, grapefruit and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
6. Fix all the ingredients nicely on a bowl and drizzle the dressing over.
Enjoy!
