Guacamole & Buckwheat Vitality Bowl
Basil-studded buckwheat makes a wonderfully hearty base for this fresh bowl featuring marinated broccoli, avocado and feta. Crisp florets mingle in a creamy Dijon and shallot marinade while avocado works its magic in two ways – mashed into a decadent guacamole and thinly sliced for a tasty topper.
