Being on the road we always find it a challenge to eat healthy so were super excited to discover ‘bowl’ recipes.  The beauty of a ‘bowl’ is minimal cooking/prep and the ability to throw in whatever you have in the cupboard or fridge.  Anything works!  Here are a few of our favourite but check out Natural Harry https://naturalharry.com.au/rainbow-whole-foods-nourish-bowl-recipe-video/?v=3a52f3c22ed6 or Jamie Oliver for more bowl recipes then you could ever get through! https://www.jamieoliver.com/galleries/delicious-and-healthy-one-bowl-recipes
