Veggie Bowl with Thai Peanut Sauce | Recipe
Description
This is probably one of my top 10 favourite recipes because its just so delicious! How can something this delicious be so healthy? It's because it's packed with 5 different types of vegetables including carrots, red pepper, cucumber, onions, garlic as well as an ancient grain containing all nine amino acids. Yes thats right 9. Some food don't contain any. These amino acids are essential for a healthy life and a healthy body. This bowl is also packed with protein! Just the quinoa alone is enough protein for most people at one meal when paired with the tofu / edamame (which are both entirely optional by the way) the meal is now super charged with protein. A perfect meal to simply FEEL BETTER. Add this to your diet once per week to get plenty of healthy vitamins and nutrients you body desperately needs to stay healthy. Also adding some extremely beneficial fibre and protein to maintain feeling the best. This meal is completely VEGAN depending on your choice of Thai peanut sauce (I'm sure there are many options).
Here is the ingredients list and the recipe! Enjoy!
