Recipe Round-Up: Appetite For Reduction (Bowl edition)

I'm trying something a bit different at the moment, by posting a few times about a book so that I can get out all of the photos I have to share! So you may see two or three posts about the same book in my recipe-round ups, and I may post more than one recipe round-up post a week... or not, I'm back at work now so who knows. We'll see how things go. Anyway, still in the wonderful Appetite For Reduction for a bit longer. After all the recipes, there is a chapter called Elements of a Bowl, which is a list of suggestions for combining different sauces in the book with a grain (or noodle), a bean, and a green to create some wonderful delicious and tasty bowl meals. I'm just going to list the components of the bowls here, any changes I made, and give my rating for the overall bowl, I've already rated and reviewed the sauce and dressing recipes in previous posts.

Mexicana Kale Bowl: Brown rice, black beans, steamed kale, steamed sweet potato, Red Velvet Mole, fresh cilantro.

Supergreen Bowl: Quinoa, steamed kale and broccoli, edamame, Green Goddess Garlic Dressing, fresh parsley and chives. I added some peas and served it over baby spinach rather than steaming kale.

Peanut-Lime Tempeh Bowl: Quinoa, steamed broccoli, sauteed tempeh, Peanut-Lime Dragon Dressing.
Rating: :D



Nori Bowl: Brown rice, steamed broccoli, adzuki beans, Carrot-Ginger Dressing, shredded nori.
Rating: :)



Mediterranean Bowl: Bulgur, roasted cauliflower, chickpeas, Caesar Chavez Dressing. I used brown rice instead of bulgur, added some baby spinach, and I roasted my chickpeas in Braggs and nutritional yeast for some extra flavour.

Romesco Bowl: Quinoa, white beans, grilled zucchini, Romesco Dressing. I also added some flaked almonds.
Rating: :)



Vegan Bowl: Brown rice, baked tofu, steamed kale, Caesar Chavez Dressing.
Rating: :)



Soba Bowl: Soba noodles, steamed broccoli and zucchini, black beans, Green Onion-Miso vinaigrette. I roasted the zucchini and broccoli instead of steaming. Also the vinaigrette is normally made with red miso, but when I made it for this bowl all I had was white.

Gravy Bowl: Brown rice, baked tempeh, steamed kale, Silky Chickpea Gravy.

Even more sitting on me! She is quite fond of a snuggle and snooze on my chest. I am not complaining.
