Deconstructed Stuffed Bell Pepper Bowl
You guys are in a for a treat today. My friend Lindsay Cotter who blogs over at Cotter Crunch just came out with a cookbook. And guess what.
It’s all about superfood bowls!
Lindsay has been blogging for 7 years now and is a gluten free nutrition specialist. She started cotter crunch to share how she fueled her husband, who was a professional tri-athlete at the time. Her speciality was in sports nutrition, so she knows her stuff when it comes to fueling the body with “goods.” But now she shares her heart for real food with an emphasis on gluten free recipes.
Not only is her photography absolutely gorgeous… #goals
But she is super creative with her recipes. Some of my favorite recipes on her site are her Paleo 5 Spice BBQ Meatballs, One Bowl Vegan Chocolate Caramel Browniesand her Spicy Shrimp Caesar Spinach Salad.
And guys those are just the recipes on her website.
Her new cookbook Nourishing Superfood Bowls is FILLED … from cover to cover with beautiful recipes using real food ingredients to create delicious nutritious meals. From breakfast to dessert she has you covered and believe me, you’ll want to lick the page after you see each of these recipes!
I mean who, doesn’t want to dive into a bowl of Sticky Date Cake Yogurt Bowls or aBaja Fish Tacos Bowl! Um, yes please!
Today’s recipe these Deconstructed Stuffed Bell Pepper Bowlsare from her cookbook, from the family style section. Which on a side note, I love that she has a family style section. Bowls are notorious for serving just one or two people, but some nights you need to make enough for a crowd, or at least in my house you do. She’s got you covered there too! Genius!
This recipe was super easy to make, used real ingredients and was loaded with flavor. The meat part was my favorite, it only had a few ingredients but the depth of flavor was ridiculous. The bowl itself was nutritious and super filling. I actually had it for dinner after my first crossfit workout. I was completely satisfied and felt great afterwards. I can’t wait to try more of her recipes!
Lindsay has a total of 75 recipes in her book ranging from breakfast, lunch, dinner, family style and even desserts.
