Power Bowl with Miso Dressing
Miso Power Bowls
These Miso Power Bowls continue the “put all the leftovers in a bowl and take a picture” blog theme. Truth is, I am addicted to these easy, healthy and versatile meals. It is fun to experiment with different dressings, veggies and grains. Just a few flavor changes gives you a whole new meal experience. I am in the habit of roasting and steaming up some veggies and grains on the weekend so I can toss together a healthy lunch or dinner during the week. I keep a jar of pickled onions and a few different toasted seeds handy to make a super fast meal. The dressing takes less than five minutes to toss together.
