This is my Breakfast Power Bowl. Call it what you want; Buddha Bowl, Glory Bowl, Hippie Bowl or Power Bowl and improvise to create your own. The most recent one I had in a restaurant was served on a plate so even the use of a bowl is up for interpretation so just have fun and enjoy!

Surely a Power Bowl should include power foods like healthy greens, vegetables, beans, nuts, seeds and healthy grains? According to the author of Buddha’s Diet , the original Buddha Bowl likely has a literal origin. As the story goes early each morning Buddha would walk the roads and paths wherever he was. Locals placed any food they had to share in his bowl and at the end of the day this is what the Buddha ate.
Modern interpretations of these bowls have no rules so I included our breakfast favourites and five superfoods from this list according to Healthline.com. I also used cooked quinoa which is a super food on my list.
Hollandaise sauce is an optional garnish that interested my son. He learned how easy it is to make and it seems like a good addition to a leisurely breakfast bowl.
For our photo I made a second version with almost the same ingredients switching the sweet potatoes for regular potato wedges and serving it on a plate.
Some sources refer to power bowls as quick and easy. I call a piece of fruit and yogurt quick and easy. Grabbing a jar of overnight oats is quick and easy. My Breakfast Power Bowl is more of a leisurely weekend meal. Roasting potatoes for twenty-five minutes while I drink coffee and taking time to create a beautiful bowl now that’s my kind of breakfast.
