A good bowl follows a simple pattern. Once you know it, you can build one from almost anything in the fridge.
The formula
- One base: rice, quinoa, noodles or leaves
- One protein: eggs, beans, tofu, chicken or fish
- Two vegetables: one roasted, one raw for crunch
- One sauce that brings acid and fat
- One topping: seeds, herbs or pickles
Why it works
Contrast keeps every bite interesting: warm and cold, soft and crunchy, rich and sharp.
