How to Build the Perfect Bowl: A Step-by-Step Guide

How to Build the Perfect Bowl: A Step-by-Step Guide

Intro

Bowls have become the go-to meal for busy people — simple, customizable, and endlessly satisfying. Whether it’s rice, quinoa, or greens as your base, the magic is in the layers — and the sauce that ties it all together.

Here’s your guide to building the perfect bowl, every time, using Sauce Pantry.

1. Start with a Base

Choose something hearty to hold your flavors together:

  • Rice (white, brown, or jasmine)

  • Quinoa or couscous

  • Mixed greens or roasted vegetables

The base sets the tone — warm, cold, or mixed — depending on your mood.

2. Add Your Protein

A great bowl needs something that fills you up:

  • Chicken, steak, shrimp, or tofu

  • Hard-boiled eggs for an easy lunch bowl

  • Lentils or chickpeas for plant-based options

3. Add Texture

Texture is what makes every bite interesting. Try mixing:

  • Roasted veggies like sweet potatoes or broccoli

  • Crunchy toppings like nuts, seeds, or crispy chickpeas

  • Fresh add-ins like cucumbers, carrots, or avocado

4. Finish with a Sauce Pantry Flavor

This is where your bowl comes to life. Empty your chosen sachet into a jar, add the instructed liquid, and shake.
A few ideas:

  • Chimichurri → For bold, herby freshness

  • Sweet & Sour → For tangy, vibrant meals

  • Pesto → For rich, comforting flavor

  • Mango Habanero → For heat with a touch of sweet

5. The Final Touch

Top your bowl with herbs, lemon, or a drizzle of olive oil. That small finishing step adds depth and freshness that makes it restaurant-worthy.

Pro Tip:

Make it once, eat twice — bowls are ideal for meal prep. Store your sauce separately and shake fresh before eating for flavor that stays bright.
