Ultimate One Bowl Cheat Sheet

Ultimate One Bowl Cheat Sheet

 

For foolproof, tasty and no fuss lunches and dinners organise the above elements in your fridge (preferably on a Sunday) so you're set for 4-5 meals for the week ahead.

To prepare:

  1. Rinse and steam bulk brown rice (or any grain), then pop it in containers in the fridge (I like these)

  2. Buy/cook your favourite protein (hello roast chook)

  3. Pre-chop a selection of raw or roasted vegetables, place them in a container

  4. Have flavour "pops" on hand to spice up your meal:

    • dried cranberries, spring onions, walnuts with cayenne salt, diced avocado & lemon

Before eating:

  • Option 1: heat the grain and proteins together then combine with remaining ingredients

  • Option 2: for a cool, refreshing bowl combine all ingredients straight from the fridge

Above all, experiment! Try out different flavours and textures you like and be inspired by what's around the web. We're loving this new Bon Appetit site at the moment.
