“These bowls are especially great for the winter months, as they are warm, filling, hearty, and energizing," says Jess Kolko, a registered dietitian with Whole Foods Market's Health Starts Here program.
Combine grain, fruit or veggies, and protein of choice and garnish with seeds, nuts, or spices. For a noodle bowl, mix together 1/2 cup each cooked whole-wheat pasta and steamed spinach, 1/4 cup each roasted diced zucchini and cooked white beans, and 3 to 4 ounces grilled tofu, salmon, or chicken. Top with 1 teaspoon herbs, such as basil, parsley, or oregano.
