the whole bowl experience

If you've never been to Portland, OR, it's time you go.  There's even a TV show based on the culture of Portland.  The one thing Portlandia hasn't shown *yet* is the food cart culture in Portland.  Food carts EVERYWHERE!  One of the best, and most addicting and healthy ones, Whole Bowl.




the assembly (bottom to top): brown rice, black beans, tali sauce, salsa, sour cream, olives, avocado, cheddar, *cilantro*
  • 1/4 C. Olive oil
  • 1/4 C. Almonds (soaked)
  • 2 Tbsp. Brewer's Yeast / Nutritional Yeast (if you can't find it, it's okay!)
  • 1/4 C. Garbanzo Beans (properly sprouted and cooked)
  • 1/4 C. Water
  • 1/4 C. Lemon juice, fresh
  • 1 clove of garlic (I would add 2+ cloves next time)
  • 1/2 tsp. Sea salt
  • 1 tsp. Curry powder
  • 1 tsp. Cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. Onion powder
  • 2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • BLEND ALL OF THESE TOGETHER
blend the tali sauce.
 ASSEMBLY:
RICE

BLACK BEANS


SALSA

SOUR CREAM

OLIVES

TALI SAUCE (in actuality, the sauce should be added right after the beans, but we forgot)

AVOCADO



CHEDDAR

MORE CHEDDAR

in the original Whole Bowl, cilantro is added at the top..but I hate cilantro, and well, we didn't buy it.

  1. Oh man, the Whole Bowl is so good! But I can't believe you don't like cilantro!

  2. That honestly looks like the best thing ever. And I may make it for dinner. Or lunch. Or breakfast. Or all three right now.
