Nourish Bowls

I drool every time I see McKel of Nutrition Stripped post a photo of her daily Nourish Bowl, so this week I finally made one of my own. I ate one last night for dinner, then I had the one pictured for lunch.

I may eat this every day for the rest of my life.

What I love about the Nourish Bowl concept is that it takes very little prep work, and you can change it up every time you make one. The only prep work I did for this one was to roast the broccoli and brussels sprouts last night (which I was doing anyways for dinner). The sweet potato was easy enough to microwave since I didn’t have time to roast it. And I cheated with store-bought hummus. The salmon is Wild Planet brand from Sprouts, the beans are Eden brand, and the olives are canned.

The only thing I forgot to include in the photo is the kale underneath all of that colorful goodness. Last night I chopped up some kale, massaged it with a little olive oil and salt, and stuck it in a bag to use for a few days. Easy!

This afternoon I pulled everything out of the refrigerator, threw it in a bowl, squeezed a bit of lemon on top and chowed down munched mindfully. It was delicious.

I can’t wait to do it again.
