Buddha bowls are typically full of colorful veggies and brown rice, but since they contain nutrients, why not have a buddha bowl for breakfast? We’ve transformed the classic buddha bowl from savory to sweet with the addition of berries, hemp, and warming notes of cinnamon and vanilla.
Instead of brown rice, we’ve included quinoa for added protein. While this recipe calls for plain-cooked quinoa, we gave it a try with quinoa cooked in bone broth for extra nutrients and it was divine. So, this recipe is as versatile as you want it to be.
You can use warm or cold quinoa for this buddha breakfast bowl — it tastes great either way. We recommend preparing the quinoa beforehand so that you can reduce the time it takes to make this breakfast recipe in the morning.
