Power Bowl Recipe

This Power Bowl recipe is incredibly high in fibre, both insoluble and soluble fibre, from the quinoa, hummus and vegetables. It is also high in Vitamin C and beta-carotene, which help fight inflammation and support immune function.

The roasted cruciferous vegetables like brussels sprouts and cauliflower, contain a natural compound called Indole-3- carbinol (I3C), which aids in liver detoxification and hormone balance.
