Rainbow Cafe Bowl Recipe

This vibrant, dairy free, gluten free and refined sugar free salad recipe is a perfect plant based meal inspired by Melissa's favorite Boston-based cafe chain - you may have seen it featured on the "Melissa's Rainbow Cafe Bowl" episode of "Mood Food with Melissa"!



Rainbow Cafe Bowl

makes multiple servings


INGREDIENTS


4 cups sweet potato puree (warmed)

6 cups chopped kale

1.5 cups peeled and roughly diced beets

1.5 cups roughly chopped fennel bulb

1/2 cup spring water

1 large avocado, peeled and sliced

to taste everything seasoning

to taste nutritional yeast

1/4 cup chopped cashews




 METHOD


Combine the kale, fennel, beets and water in a large pot over medium-high heat. Cover and cook for 3-5 minutes until the vegetable just begin to turn tender.


Divide the kale, fennel and beet mixture into individual serving bowls, leaving room on one side of the bowl for the sweet potato puree. Fill the space you have left with the sweet potato puree.


On the opposite side of the bowl, add the avocado and top to taste with nutritional yeast and everything but the bagel seasoning.


Finish the entire dish with a drizzle of Tamari Ginger Dressing, some crushed cashews and pinch of flakey sea salt.



NOTES


Goes great with roasted sweet potatoes, butternut squash, cauliflower, carrots and other sweet/starchy vegetables.


KALE is one of the most nutrient dense foods on the planet with high levels of antioxidants that help prevent damage to cells.


NATURAL SEA SALT is full of necessary nutrients and trace minerals that play an essential role in many of our body's vital functions.
