Honey, Lemon & Soy Sticky Chicken Buddha Bowl

The concept of abundance and balance is where the name “Buddha Bowl” originates. The bowls typically have a variety of vibrant and wholesome ingredients arranged in an attractive way, making them visually appealing. 

The honey, lemon and soy sticky chicken is a twist on the classic plant-based Buddha Bowl and the Food Lover’s Salad Toppers Sprinkle gives the bowl an extra boost of crunch and flavour.
