Asparagus, Potatoes with Egg, Avocado

When it's asparagus season, make asparagus veggie bowls (or grain bowls).

I'm doing without the grains today, keeping it to asparagus, broccoli, bell pepper and garlic roasted potatoes, topped with sliced avocado and hard-boiled eggs.


Meal planning and preparation during the weekend helps in setting a healthy and nutritious mode for the week. If you can't do full meal preparation during the weekend, a partial meal preparation such as cleaning/rinsing and slicing/chopping the vegetables, and batch-cooking the eggs goes a long way in saving you much time during the busy weekdays.

If you are looking for more veggie bowls and grain bowls ideas, they are labeled under Search Ingredients on the right column of the website. There are vegetarian/plant-based, poultry, seafood options of veggie and grain bowls available.
