Buddha bowls are perfect for the busy (and healthy!) mom! They’re quick to whip up (really whatever veggies you have in the fridge will work), taste great and give you a plethora of nutrients in just one bowl (here’s another one of my favorites)! This beet and orange bowl is perfect for summertime dinner as it’s light, fresh and filling.
The “Buddha bowl” is a classic hippie dish. They’re normally vegan, packed full of delicious vegetables and sprouts and of course are utterly tasty!
I personally love Buddha bowls because they’re easy to customize and even easier to throw together.
This Beet & Orange Buddha Bowl not only taste great but is full of health boosting, gut friendly ingredients. Most people don’t consume beets regularly, but they should! Just the deep color of beets makes me want to add them to dishes. But the real perk is that they’re a great liver helper and detoxifier.
The dressing for this bowl initially came from Oh She Glows and has a miso base. Miso is a fermented product which means just by eating this bowl you’re giving your gut some love.
And lastly, quinoa. A super food in its own right. Quinoa is both a grain and a good protein source making it an ideal base for this bowl. It’s light, fluffy and pairs well with everything.
In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredient and set aside. Peel and prep all veggies. Divide the quinoa between four dinner bowls (roughly 3/4 cup per bowl). Top the bowls with the prepped veggies. Add dressing to your bowl and enjoy!
Don’t forget to pin this tasty bowl!

What about you, do you love Buddha bowls?
I go through bowl phases too but I’m loving them in the warm weather right now! Enjoy the bowl- let me know what you think!
Yum! Beets are my fave and we have so many in the CSA box right now. I’m always looking for creative uses. Thanks!
I adore beets! When in doubt, roast them with seat salt… so yummy!
Seems easy enough to make. Beets are making a comeback! I usually use beef powder. I can’t remember the last time I ate them.
Ohh I actually haven’t played around with beet powder- thanks for the tips! I love beets- roasted, raw every way possible.
Thanks Katie! Miso is a fermented soy paste and has kind of a tangy taste to it. Because it’s fermented it’s amazing for your gut bacteria. There’s not a great substitution but you could try omitting it and adding more tahini. The flavor profile would be a bit more dull but I think still tasty!
I dislike beetroot but this looks so good like you said, they are so versatile do I could substitute it.
I personally love Buddha bowls (they are so super easy and nutritious) but I hadn’t heard of the orange and beetroot combination! So mega… And VEGAN! Woohoo. Must tell Husband about this – thank you 🙂 ?
Mmm I love orange and beets! I used to make a stir fry with them too so tasty! Enjoy the bowl and let me know what you think about the combo when you try it!
