These healthy Buddha bowls are a great example of how to make the clean eating lifestyle more exciting and serve up a beautiful dish. 6 separate ingredients are cooked in a variety of different flavours that work perfectly together.

This recipe works as a fantastic guide to creating a wholesome Buddha bowl, but can also serve as inspiration if you want to get creative and mix up the ingredients! The recipe would work perfectly if you wanted a vegan dish, by swapping out the chicken for tofu, for example.

These healthy Buddha bowls are the perfect dish for a clean eating lifestyle, providing a good balance of protein, healthy carbohydrates and fibre.

Chicken is cooked until juicy and tender in aromatic spices.

You can experiment with any mixture of vegetables that you choose.

Chickpeas are baked in a medley of spices until slightly crunchy and full of flavour.

The bowls also look beautiful when served!
