For an easy and healthy lunch, nothing beats a Buddha Bowl! The principle is simple: combine vegetables, proteins, and starches in a bowl to create a balanced meal. Here, I've chosen a vegetarian version with foods rich in plant-based proteins (avocado, red lentil pasta). Plus, thanks to the red lentil pasta, this Buddha Bowl is also gluten-free!

After rinsing the vegetables:
-Cut the carrot in half and then into slices.
-Detach the broccoli heads.
-Slice the Chinese cabbage.
Steam them for 15 to 20 minutes until they are crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Cook the red lentil pasta according to the instructions on your package. The advantage of red lentil pasta is that it cooks in just 4 minutes!
After draining the cooked pasta, place it in a bowl and add the cooked vegetables on top. Slice the half avocado and add it to the bowl.
Drizzle everything with olive oil and soy sauce, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and you're ready to enjoy!
