Why Make an Anti-Inflammatory Glow Bowl?
This bowl is a powerful way to enjoy an array of anti-inflammatory foods in one meal.

Building the Ultimate Nourishing Plant-Based Bowl
A great glow bowl begins with a hearty base—think cooked quinoa or brown rice—layered with roasted and raw veggies for a mix of flavors and crunch. Add protein-rich chickpeas or lentils, then bring it all together with a generous drizzle of tangy, creamy tahini yogurt sauce. Top with your favorite seeds (like hemp or pumpkin) and fresh herbs for a professional, nourishing finish.
The Creamy Tahini Yogurt Sauce
This sauce elevates the bowl with a satisfying, tangy richness. Simply whisk together tahini with plant-based yogurt, a fresh squeeze of lemon juice, garlic, and a dash of cumin and turmeric for a golden hue and extra anti-inflammatory punch. The result? A sauce that coats every ingredient with flavor and functional benefits.
Serving Suggestions for Maximum Glow

This bowl is perfect on its own, but pairs beautifully with a cup of herbal tea or a ginger-infused sparkling water for an energizing lunch or a nourishing dinner.
