I make brown rice, black beans, and salsa bowl. It does not offer the variety of ingredients as Buddha Bowls, but I like it.

Hi @Iwantcoffee

I think the trick is to get some veg on top, too.I know you are getting some in salsa, but maybe add a couple of grape tomatoes, sauteed or fresh red or green bell pepper strips if you like them.

Yes! You are right.  I should add some vegetables.

@Noel7  Thanks for starting this thread .  We were just discussing Buddha bowls the other day.   Alec baldwins wife was on a show last week and she has book out about them.  Evidentally that's how her family eats.   Also, I cook my quinoa in broth.  One recipe I throw in dried cranberries with roasted almonds.   I also stick a cinnamon stick in while its cooking.  Its my favorite quinoa recipe. @QVCkitty1  Thanks for the tip on the rice medley I'll have to look for it.

I think I saw a recipe from the opening post with a cinnamon stick! What I love about these bowls is we can really go for different flavors.  I want to plan one with Asian flavors and maybe baby bok choy on top.  

A little sesame oil goes a long way and it's considered a healthy oil.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the great bowl ideas!

I've heard about doing this, and then for some reason, it just kind of slipped my mind.

That Minute Rice blend sounds really good, too.

I'll have to look for that.

I'm always looking for something different to use as a side or with a meal. My DH loves noodles and rice and things like that to have with our meals, and he also likes to try different things, too.
