Foodie Friday: One Bowl Meals

{ Via Feasting at Home }

I have blogged about most types of food over the years, but never about Bowl Meals. It's about time. These recipes may be the biggest addition to restaurant menus of the last 5 years or so. They are mostly healthy, filled with powerful nutrients and flavor! So this weekend, put your plate away and try one of these beautiful bowls.
