Nourish Bowl with Sesame Brown Rice Nori & Greens

 

Just as its title promises, this humble little Nourish Bowl does exactly that. Greens have you covered when it comes to a wide avariety of vitamins and nutrients. Whole grains provide you with fibre and together with good fats (avocado) a good amount of sustainable energy. Add to the equation Nori for some Sea Minerals. Plus, who would have thought, kale and sesame seeds are both an awesome vegan source of calcium, essential for our womanly bones, especially through the child bearing years. Pack it up and use the Nori to make up miniature sushi rolls or take a moment to just for you, to stop and nourish yourself at home xx
