Summer Watermelon Buddha Bowl

Stick to a traditional plant-based Buddha bowl and amp up the protein by adding tofu or legumes. Those that aren’t vegetarian can add a chicken or fish – both taste delicious with sweet watermelon and tangy tahini dressing. This dish is both sweet and savory and can be served for breakfast, lunch or dinner!

Ingredients

Citrus Tahini Dressing

3 tbsp Tahini
1/3 cup Orange Juice freshly squeezed
1/4 cup Rice Vinegar
1 tsp Soy Sauce

2 cups Watermelon seedless, cubed
4 mini Cucumbers thinly sliced
1 cup Sweet Cherries pitted and halved
2 Avocado sliced
2 cup Black Rice cooked

Instructions

Combine all the dressing ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine. If the dressing seems thick, add a bit more orange juice or water until you reach the desired consistency.
Arrange the Buddha bowls by placing evenly dividing the watermelon, cucumbers, cherries, avocados, and rice between four bowls. Sprinkle with the toasted almonds and drizzle with the dressing. Serve immediately.
