I'm a sucker for a good bowl meal (which is why I have so many bowl recipes on this site). Such a great way to get in high quality whole plant sources of veggies, whole grains, beans/legumes, and a little healthy fat all in one meal. The sauce or dressing is key to pulling everything together, and this sauce is no exception. The perfect compliment to the crisp raw veggies plus warm grains and edamame. Superb!!
