Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups rice cooked
  • 4 cups any protein cooked
  • 2 cups sweet potatoes roasted
  • 2 cups broccoli roasted
  • 2 tbsp olive or avocado oil
  • 2 cups greens ex. lettuce or kale

Sauce

  • ½ cup avocado oil
  • ½ cup peanut butter natural

  • 2 tbsp chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  • 1 clove garlic diced or minced
  • ¼ cup lime juice
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ¾ tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Gather and prep all your bowl ingredients. To save time you can use pre-cooked protein and rice or use leftover protein and grains. Alternatively, cook your protein and rice.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Grab a sheet pan and spread out your broccoli on one side of the pan and your sweet potatoes on the other side. Drizzle with 2 Tbsp oil. Cook the broccoli for 15 - 20 minutes or until desired doneness. Continue to cook the sweet potatoes for 35 - 40 minutes total, or until desired doneness. Remove from oven and set aside.
  • Next, make the sauce. In a mason jar or tall container with a lid, add all the sauce ingredients. Place the lid on securely and shake.
  • It's time to make your bowls! You can make these all as meal prep or serve as a meal, or both. Divide all ingredients into 4 and create your bowls. Top with sauce as desired. Enjoy.

How-to-Use:
Athletes: Carbs are the main item we need to scale up as our training volume increases. This recipe is super easy to do. Just make more rice and/or potatoes!
Healthy Eating: One of my favorite parts about building bowls is that we can customize them to exactly what we need nutritionally. Adjust portions of grains, proteins, and veggies as needed. But, please make sure to include all the pieces and parts for a balanced meal!
Kids: Feel free to deconstruct this bowl and put the sauce on the side for dipping to encourage your littles to join in on the fun.
