We love a buddha bowl here at zest and wanted to find away to combine that with another of our great food loves: Italian cuisine. A typical buddha bowl consists of: a grainy base, veggies, greens, protein and fats. We wanted to find a way to include all of these whilst keeping it Italian and we mostly succeeded (I’m looking at you, humous 👀).
