Falafel Nourish Bowl
December, 2020

I love creating nourish bowls using ingredients I have left in my fridge/freezer. They are always so colourful and nourishing. You can use any combination of ingredients, but I always ensure the bowls are balanced with a source of carbohydrate, protein, healthy fats and vegetables.
