Life has been busy lately. I still can't believe it's already October, and I'm having even more trouble wrapping my head around the fact that stores are already showing Christmas decorations. I've been relying on quick and easy bowls to fuel me. I made this Easy Chickpea & Broccoli Buddha Bowl last week and found myself making it again and again. It's veg-packed and satisfying while coming together in under 10 minutes. Feel free to mix up the veggies; these are just the ones that I had on hand. I hope this bowl saves you when your crunched for time like it has for me!
