2B Mindset Vegan Buddha Bowl Ingredients

For Lemon Tahini

If you want to make lemon tahini, you will need tahini and lemon. But you will also want some garlic, olive oil, and salt and pepper. The extra ingredients will bring out even more flavor.

This sauce is easy to make, but the flavors aren’t simple at all. Instead, it’s a very complex-tasting sauce that you will surely enjoy.

For the Buddha Bowl

We will need greens, veggies, riced cauliflower, protein, and the dressing if we follow the basics of the Buddha bowl. This recipe calls for a large beet, shredded carrots, shredded cabbage, brussels sprouts, tofu, olive oil, and salt and pepper.

Together, these ingredients will build the bowl, and you can enjoy it all. We can also substitute some of these ingredients, like quinoa instead of riced cauliflower or chicken instead of tofu.

You can use the tofu to make this recipe vegan, though. It is totally up to you. Be sure to cook the chicken thoroughly if you choose to go that route.
