There is no wrong way to make a satisfying Nourish Bowl, especially when topped with Struesli Savory + Seed! Mix up your colorful bowl with whatever you have on hand. The combination of flavors, textures and nutrients is a home run.
Here is one of my favorite combinations along with a creamy sun nut butter dressing you will want to double and use on everything!

* Tip: For the blanched beans in this recipe. To blanch green beans fill a medium-sized pot ¾ full of water and add a tbsp of salt, bring it to a boil. Trim off the root end of the green beans. I like to keep the pointy part on for aesthetics. Add the green beans to the boiling water for about 3 minutes. While they are boiling, fill a large bowl with ice water to shock the beans and keep them nice and green. When the 3 minutes are up, drain the beans into a colander and then put them into the ice water for a few minutes. Drain and enjoy!
* Tip: For the roasted vegetables in this recipe. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees, line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean up. Cut veggies to a similar size for even cooking. Drizzle with a tablespoon or 2 of mild tasting avocado oil, salt and pepper to taste (and any other spices you like) right on the pan and stir around to coat evenly. Roast for 20-30 minutes depending on size.
