    Rainbow Glow Bowl

    Apr 2, 2015 • Follicular Phase, Glow Bowls, Ovulatory Phase, Salads

    'Rainbow Glow Bowl' vegan and gluten free, fresh and vibrant with leafy greens, lots of vegetables, plant protein and fun toppings. Totally customizable to your liking. From The Glowing Fridge

    Living plant based emphasizes eating a fresh array of the vibrant colors that nature has to offer. “Eating the rainbow” is a good way to put it. Each color provides unique nutrients; all of which are essential for our bodies to function and thrive, so eating a variety of plants and changing it up is key. An easy way to change it up is to eat with the seasons. That way, you’re incorporating new veggies/fruits in your diet and saving on your grocery bill. It forces you to venture out, get creative and try new foods. 

    What I love about this Rainbow Glow Bowl is that it can be anything you want it to be. The possibilities are endless. When I want to make a Rainbow Glow Bowl, I open the fridge and pick out whatever I have on hand. My grocery list keeps me on track with picking out lots of colors from the store and makes it easy to whip up a quick, super fresh and nourishing bowl at home. They make the perfect lunch!

    Sometimes my bowls end up being fully raw and other times I include cooked grains, legumes and steamed vegetables, but usually it’s a mix between the two. The more raw veggies you add, the better 🙂 that way, you are feeding your cells living nutrients, phytochemicals and enzymes with fiber, vitamins and minerals. Raw foods are crucial for immune health, digestive health and reducing your risk for chronic disease. They also feed your skin, hair, nails and help to achieve a healthy glow. 

    I created 2 different bowls for examples. If you are new to the veggie-lovin’ life or you need some rainbow inspiration, try these recipes first and go from there.

    The first bowl includes:

    2 big handfuls of leafy greens – spring mix and kale
    1 cup cauliflower florets
    1/2 of a yellow bell pepper, sliced
    1/2 cup chopped purple cabbage
    1 cup chopped English cucumber (they are seedless)
    2 tablespoons hummus
    sprinkle of hemp hearts (this is my favorite brand)
    ??lemon turmeric oil-free dressing: 2 tablespoons raw apple cider vinegar, juice from 1/2 lemon, 1 heaping tablespoon spicy dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon maple syrup, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric, sea salt and pepper to taste

    The second bowl includes:

    2 big handfuls of leafy greens – spinach and kale
    1 cup of cauliflower florets
    1/2 cup chopped purple cabbage
    3 radishes (sliced)
    1/2 cup chickpeas
    sprinkle of hemp hearts
    spicy kick of jalape?o slices
    simple tahini dressing from this recipe

what are you guys up to today?! I’m installing our new shower filter that I can’t wait to share about, running errands, cleaning, thinking about dinner, the usual Sunday things 💗💗💗
    HANDLE NAME CHANGE!! I’ve been wanting to do th HANDLE NAME CHANGE!!

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while as a fresh start with all the changes to my “brand” in the last year. It feels right to just use my name 😀 (fun fact: I haven’t taken my hubbys last name yet because of business paperwork that I’m too lazy to figure out 😅 name changes are complicated) 

@theglowingfridge started out of my love for the plant based lifestyle but so much has changed in the last 9 years and I’ve been itching to update. Nothing else will change and my blog will still remain as is, if you still use my recipes and such. Love you all and thank you for supporting me through all these changes 🤍🤍🤍

    what I eat for gut health, happy hormones, healthy what I eat for gut health, happy hormones, healthy skin & hair, and to be a patient mama 🖤

When my blood sugar is on a nasty rollercoaster, I’m not the best mama that I know I should be for my girl. I’m more irritable and short. So I prioritize protein, healthy fats and carbs at each meal. This helps me feel balanced and provides energy to play and chase after her all day! I need all the fuel I can get.

- collagen king coffee ☁️ 
- leftover homemade chicken fried rice 
- swedish meatballs & gf pasta & green beans
- my homemade tahini maple cookies (I have a reel with the recipe!!) but I’m truly addicted 🍪 
- always sipping on @gerolsteiner_usa 💧

    I don’t get ready everyday… But when I do I f I don’t get ready everyday…

But when I do I feel better, duh! And more confident. More productive. Happier in general. Of course I have super lazy days but I try to get myself together because I’m more likely to leave the house, you know mamas? I hate when people ask “why do you get ready if you’re home all day”.. 

I’m sharing different content like this because I feel like it and don’t want to be stuck in a box 😀

    I mean if you drink it everyday… It should be o I mean if you drink it everyday…

It should be organic, mold-free, tested for mycotoxins and taste delicious, etc. King coffee goes a step further with a therapeutic dose of reishi spores, the most powerful and potent part of reishi mushroom! Most other companies use the lucidum part of reishi, in case you’re wondering 👑

    passes & smashes for gut healing ❤️‍🩹 I passes & smashes for gut healing ❤️‍🩹

I have many more passes too.. extreme diets, too many supplements, gluten, juice cleanses, eating too fast and not chewing enough.. the list goes on!

Gut healing takes a multi-faceted approach and it’s never just one supplement to heal or one thing to do.

It takes time, patience and grace! And working alongside a practitioner you feel called to 🙏🏼
