Buddha Bowls: A Bowl Of Happiness

Buddha bowls are totally trendy at the moment. The trend from the USA is also causing a stir in Germany and is attracting more attention every day. But what is behind these unique bowls and why should you decide for yourself to try such a bowl?

To get closer to these questions we first have to find out what the term "Buddha Bowl" actually means. The term "Bowl" means nothing else than "bowl".

But how is the word "Buddha" added? The answer is quite simple: The bulging bowls are reminiscent of a Buddha belly. Therefore, even after a short time, the term "Buddha bowl" has established itself.

What does a Buddha bowl actually consist of and how do you prepare it? There is no unique recipe for it. What you need, but definitely need, is a large round bowl. That's where the ingredients will find their place. You don't have to worry about the recipe at all with this book. In this book we have put together a wide range of different recipes for you. You can be sure that there is something for every taste. In addition, this book is suitable for beginners as well as experienced. You don't have to bring previous experience with Buddha Bowls. You will quickly get the hang of it and know the best recipes by heart.

What makes these Buddha Bowls so popular? One of the main reasons is the health aspect. It has never been easier to eat healthily than with a Buddha bowl. Buddha-Bowls are packed with the most important ingredients that provide our body with the vital minerals, nutrients and vitamins. We often forget how important it is to eat a healthy diet. Time seems to be too short and we don't seem to be able to keep up. Now this is over! With this book you will learn how easy it can be to eat healthy and balanced. And the best: It doesn't even have to cost you a lot of time!

Buddha Bowls: These are your advantages

As mentioned in the preface, Buddha bowls are packed with the most important nutrients. With our recipes you can be sure that your body is not only filled with plenty of protein, but also healthy carbohydrates and fats. The body also needs these to work productively throughout the day.

Especially the topic of carbohydrates is taboo for many people. Especially women try to avoid carbohydrates at all costs. Our body needs carbohydrates to work productively and to be fit and healthy.

What many people do not understand is that the type of carbohydrates makes the difference. Simple carbohydrates are often found in our daily diet. Although these are absorbed by the body, they are also quickly burned again. The consequence is that we get cravings.

This is now over! With our Buddha-Bowls you will find only complex and rich carbohydrates. These include for example sweet potatoes, wholemeal noodles or brown rice. These foods supply the body with sufficient energy and also ensure that this energy does not disappear again quickly.

The same applies to fats and proteins. Quality always comes first with us. Just as with carbohydrates, fats do not have to be bad. They can even help you lose weight. We only use unsaturated fatty acids for our recipes. These stimulate the organism and supply the body with important nutrients.

Buddha Bowls: Small disadvantages for great enjoyment

You can change a lot with this book. Our diet has a big influence on whether we stay fit and slim. Nevertheless, it is not everything. If you want to lose weight, you should never ignore exercise. It is advisable to combine these recipes with enough exercise. In this way you can achieve the best results in the shortest possible time. A mix of endurance and strength sports is best suited for this.

You should only eat as much as you are hungry. You can also overdo it with healthy food by not listening to your body. Our body is quite good at recognizing when it has enough. In addition, you have the advantage that you will not have to deal with these recipes in the future with ravenous appetite attacks and the like. So watch out for these signals from your body!

Last but not least, planning should not be disregarded. If we plan correctly, we can save a lot of time. That is also what I would advise you to do. Some recipes in this book will take more time than the others. So allow yourself enough time to test yourself.

Buddha Bowls: What awaits you in the cookbook

The full variety awaits you in this book! Buddha bowls are extremely versatile and can easily be adapted to the current season. You'll be amazed at how you can make such a variety of bowls with just a few ingredients. With just a few tricks you can adapt your bowls to summer or winter. A particularly effective step for this is for example to change the vegetables.

This book will show you how delicious healthy food can be. Many people have no positive connection with extremely healthy food. Often this is because they don't know how to prepare these dishes. Anyone who has ever tried a Buddha bowl will find out how tasty healthy food can be.

In addition, most Buddha bowls will not cost you more than 10 minutes to prepare. If you prepare yourself properly, you'll see how easy and fast it can be to prepare a bowl like this. With Meal Prepping you can also save a lot of time and precook all recipes for the coming days or the whole week.

Meal Prepping is especially suitable for people who want to lose weight with these bowls. Translated "Meal Prepping" means nothing more than

"Precooking". The principle behind it is quite simple: You take one day a week where you precook for the rest of the week. For most people this is Sunday. With these bowl recipes, you won't have to invest more than 2 to a maximum of 3 hours in one day for the whole week. On the following days you can simply warm up the meals. You don't have to cook anything anymore!

Note: You should still prepare fresh ingredients such as fruit or vegetables on the same day.

Buddha Bowls: How is this cookbook structured?

Our goal with this book was to meet every taste. That's why this goal was also the focus of the construction of this book. This recipe book starts with some main courses. Here you will find something for every taste. We make an all-round tour of the different cuisines in the world. From Morocco to Asian cuisine everything is included!

This book continues with vegan and vegetarian recipes. As we have already noticed at the beginning, the demand for meat-free recipes continues to grow. For this reason we also wanted to give our vegans and vegetarians the opportunity to test themselves completely. In this chapter you will also find many recipes with Superfoods. Superfoods have become known in recent years mainly for supplying the body with important minerals and vitamins, which are often lost in everyday nutrition.

In the further process our focus shifts from breakfast bowls. Even in the early hours of the morning you can put together great bowls with little effort and in a few minutes.

In this chapter vegans, vegetarians and of course meat eaters get their money's worth. In this chapter you will also find great recipes with bacon. Since breakfast can often get monotonous, we have taken care in this chapter to provide you with a large selection of various recipes. Even if you don't know a recipe yet, it is definitely worth trying it.

Desserts will of course not be neglected in this recipe book. Your advantage in the future is that you don't have to do without your daily dessert anymore. The dessert recipes we have compiled for you are not only fresh and healthy, but also low in calories. They are especially suitable for people who want to lose weight.

Have you ever heard of smoothie bowls? If not, you should definitely try them out at the end of the book. Smoothie-Bowls are not only tasty, but filled with the most important vitamins and minerals. They are also particularly suitable for breakfast or as a snack in between. As you can see, we have compiled this book for you in as many ways as possible. Now it's up to you to try out the recipes. With this I want to end the preface and wish you a lot of fun reading and especially trying it out!
