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.
