There’s a new bowl in town… my Harvest Bowl recipe is a must make for the season.
Hi guuuyyyysss!
So…. I’ve actually been making and eating buddha bowls long before they had a name or were cool. Since I’ve been a vegetarian for so long, I’ve long found myself piling a bunch of random stuff in a bowl, adding some sort of sauce and calling it a meal. Although I do have to say I’ve traditionally made them in a huge salad bowl to I have plenty of room to move stuff around which means they were never this pretty or cool.
If you don’t really know what I’m talking about yet, Buddha Bowls are a food trend where a bunch of wholesome ingredients are piled high in a bowl and topped with a delicious sauce. They are often vegan (hence the buddha name) and serve as a complete meal in one place. They are a pretty awesome way to eat.
So for fall I created this Harvest Bowl recipe for us all to enjoy!
I mean look at that fall goodnessssss……
You can’t go wrong with this sweet potato, pomegranate and pumpkin seed combination. It’s crunchy– it’s sweet– it’s savory– it’s PERFECT!
My Harvest Bowl recipe also features farro and kale for the base. You can use any grain including quinoa, but I just love the nutty flavor of farro.
I added kale because it’s easy to find year round and an extra serving of greens never hurt anyone. And a sliced apple… because what says harvest more than apples?
The sauce is my simple Lemon Tahini Dressing, which you really must add to your repertoire of go-to recipes. It’s like foodie crack… I swear! Plus it goes with so many things.
My Harvest Bowl recipe is one you’ve got to try this fall or winter. It’s such a tasty combo and filling, well rounded meal. You’ll feel good making and eating it.

I love buddha bowls – this one looks delicious! I’m not a vegetarian, but I go meatless every once and a while when I know my husband’s not going to be home for dinner. Thanks for sharing!
That is always the struggle! Hope you get a chance to try this.
I eat different variations of veggie bowls most nights per week. Farro has also been one of my favorite grains lately. Have not tried adding in the apples-yum
The apples are so good!
Looks too pretty to eat! Yum!
But then it’s so good! Thanks Wendy!
This looks delicious! I need to try this with my family (I know my daughter would eat it. It’s convincing my son that’s always a challenge.)
Aw!!! Hope you enjoy it!
Love the combination of flavors you use in your bowl. Great idea!
Thanks Debbie!

Isn’t it funny how something you’ve been doing for so long suddenly becomes trendy and gets a cool name? Throwing leftovers into a bowl and adding some sort of sauce is a normal occurrence in my diet. I’ve never heard of farro but I’m going to check it out.
That is funny! Guess we were cool all along. haha! 🙂
Can’t wait to try your Buddha Bowl recipes! Thank you for sharing!
Yay! HOpe you enjoy it.
