Who doesn't love a burrito bowl, especially when it contains whole food ingredients and you can whip it up in 15 minutes! It's the NB nutrition way - simple, healthy, quick! If I'm not in the mood to make dinner but still want to fill my body with goodness this is one of my go-to's. It's high in fibre, vegetarian protein and healthy fats from the delicious avocado dressing. It's also a fantastic meal to make when meal prepping as well to enjoy as lunches or a pre-made dinner during busy weeks.
Ingredients:
Method:
Cook quinoa as per instructions. Once cooked rinse under cold water and drain well.
Cook corn in boiling water for 5 minutes, OR enjoy it raw. Slice cobs off the corn with a knife.
To make the dressing add all ingredients into a blender and blend together until smooth.
Add cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, parsley into a bowl and stir together until well combined.
To assemble in a bowl or plate, add one large handful of lettuce, one chopped tomato, 1.5 cups of the quinoa-bean mixture and drizzle or spoon the avocado dressing on top.

Hey there,
Thank you for the wonderful recipes, do you know of a good substitute for avocado?
If dairy agrees with you, you could add some grated cheese or feta, or otherwise chopped and seeds.
