All the bowl food recipes you need - from poke to Mexican mess

One bowl to rule them all - the best bowl food. We love an excellent and nourishing meal with as little washing up as possible... and that's why we love bowl food. Everything you need for a gorgeous meal, complete in one bowl. No side dishes, no dipping sauce, no extra plates and fuss. We particularly love the Buddha bowls of a healthy grain with plenty of vegetables, a little bit of protein and a huge serving of anything fermented to get your gut back in balance. So here are sixteen (yes, sixteen!) of our favourite bowl food recipes to get your creative bowl juices flowing. Dinner is served!

The Nude Nutritionist's BBQ beef buddah bowl

Lyndi Cohen's Korean barbecue beef

The Nude Nutritionist Lyndi Cohen's sneaky way to get more fruit and fibre into your dinner. You won't believe the results of this seasonal pear marinading trick, inspired by Korean barbecue beef.

Lyndi's Cohen's nutritionist tips:

•In Korea, it’s common to use pears to marinade your meat. Fruit enzymes help to break down the meat making it soft, tender and delicious.
•Pears are a fantastic source of fibre. One pear can contain as much as 5g of fibre, which is four times the amount in a piece of grainy bread.
•It’s a great way to sneak a little more fruit into your diet.
• You can use any kind of pear for this recipe, but we used the brown skinned bosc pear for this version.

Cooking Method: pan
