Pesto

Life Bowls anybody? I say that because greens give us life. I created these black avocado walnut pesto bowls to be as natural as possible – I didn’t season anything. I just let the veggies and rice do their thing and added a cheesy avocado walnut pesto sauce for some extra flavor.

Grab a bowl of rice & veggies of your choice and cover it in this sauce. It's as quick and simple as it sounds! My personal bowl was black rice, black bean pasta, cucumbers, avocado, and edamame. Get creative with it and use whatever you have in your fridge. This is a great recipe for using up any leftover ingredients. You can even keep any extra sauce for other recipes. Let's drizzle away!

this is black bean pasta, so maybe that counts as a legume not a carb!
