Summary

Create satisfying, nourishing, quick-to-prepare bowls built around grains, noodles, greens, and broths and find inspiration to customize your own creations

Want to cook healthier low-stress dinners, improve your lunch game, and find meals that can be prepped mostly in advance? Bowls are for you! The beauty of building a meal in a bowl is its versatility, and this book helps you compose 75 interesting bowls that incorporate a multitude of flavors and textures, from a Harvest Salad Bowl (abundant with squash, apples, and goat cheese) to a Cuban-Style Pork Mojo Quinoa Bowl, all while streamlining prep work to keep them casual and fun。 Where to start? Choose your base--we've got chapters based on grains, noodles, greens, and broths--and then peruse options as diverse as Seared Tuna Poke Bowl, Green Fried Rice Bowl, Tandoori Chicken Zoodle Bowl, and Pho Bowl。 Components within recipes are frequently interchangeable, so if you've got pre-cooked grains on hand, or a rotisserie chicken, you can easily swap these foods in。 (Lunch tip: Most bowls can also be made the day before and transported。)

Feel like improvising? Turn to our Bowl Basics section which offers 50 components, from pilaf-style quinoa to Quick Pickled Carrot Ribbons。 Our vibrant Beet Tzatziki sauce or crunchy Seed Brittle might be just the ticket to transform your bowl improvisation into something special, and everything can be made in advance and stored。 Looking to eat vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free? You'll find plenty of options here, plus full nutritional information for every recipe。

This book would be handy for a beginner to bowl composition, even though many bowls are made for lunchboxes。 Some good ideas for relishes and flavors。

There's something about the Buddha bowl recipes that I just love and this cookbook is full of recipes that sound so good! There's something about the Buddha bowl recipes that I just love and this cookbook is full of recipes that sound so good! 。。。more

One usually can't go wrong with an ATK cookbook。 Bowls provides an impressive array of bowl meals not only covering an array of taste and dietary preferences but what really makes this book shine is the customizations that are listed at the very end of each recipe, giving a nice little bit of wriggle room and adaptability for readers。 One usually can't go wrong with an ATK cookbook。 Bowls provides an impressive array of bowl meals not only covering an array of taste and dietary preferences but what really makes this book shine is the customizations that are listed at the very end of each recipe, giving a nice little bit of wriggle room and adaptability for readers。 。。。more

On the plus side, there are big gorgeous photos with every bowl recipe and helpful tips for making changes or substitutions。 The recipes are broken up by general categories like salads, grains, zoodles, and soups。 On the negative side, I just don't think I'll make any of these。 I also am frequently annoyed by recipes in which the ingredients also have their own recipes。 So really there are bowl recipes and at the end, bowl basics recipes too。But as a general guide for the bowl-as-meal concept th On the plus side, there are big gorgeous photos with every bowl recipe and helpful tips for making changes or substitutions。 The recipes are broken up by general categories like salads, grains, zoodles, and soups。 On the negative side, I just don't think I'll make any of these。 I also am frequently annoyed by recipes in which the ingredients also have their own recipes。 So really there are bowl recipes and at the end, bowl basics recipes too。But as a general guide for the bowl-as-meal concept this is a good place to start and while I might not make any of these specifically, its nice to be reminded of presentation and construction。 。。。more

Another winner from ATK!

Felicia

I love anything I can serve in a bowl。 This was a nice mix of soups, salads, and other bowl-friendly recipes。 Photos were very attractive and the recipes are attainable for the every day cook。

Rhonda Hicks

The possibilities in this book are truly endless。 I've fixed several of the bowl recipes and thoroughly enjoyed them。 And sometimes, I want something simple that's still good for me and filling without having to fix some elaborate meal。 The possibilities in this book are truly endless。 I've fixed several of the bowl recipes and thoroughly enjoyed them。 And sometimes, I want something simple that's still good for me and filling without having to fix some elaborate meal。 。。。more

I love grain bowls, Love Core Life Eatery, and knew I'd love this cookbook as soon as I saw it :) Now I'm starving and can't wait to start creating! Lunches for the week will be from this book。 Such a good book with so many delicious and healthy ideas!

This one surprised me, I mean you see so many of these bowls, what could possibly be different? But there were a ton of recipes in this one I can’t wait to try out! Also veg and vegan options too! I loved how it was broken down into sections, souls, noodles, etc plus the sauces, protein pep and toppings at the end。 I should have known it would be good, America’s test kitchen rarely disappoints。 I might have to add this one to my cookbook stockpile。

Kris Springer

A fun, creative, versatile cookbook, with lots of different kinds of bowls (grain, noodle, salad, soup) from different cultures。 Recipes have been thoroughly tested and substitutions are offered throughout。 Great ideas。 Created for a 2-person lunch or dinner but recipes can easily be doubled。 I love throwing different ingredients together in a bowl (casseroles are also a fave), and keeping certain staples in the kitchen equals yummy meals。

Bowls are the new thing in the culinary world, and America’s Test Kitchen (ATK) has done a great job of both providing the basics and expanding the definition。 Bowls, in this book, include the standard grain, bean, and noodle dishes, as well as soups and salads, which are served in bowls but sometimes overlooked in bowl discussions。 Bowls provide a healthy meal, including vegetables, protein, and usually a distinctive sauce in a one-dish meal。 While providing many specific and delicious recipes, Bowls are the new thing in the culinary world, and America’s Test Kitchen (ATK) has done a great job of both providing the basics and expanding the definition。 Bowls, in this book, include the standard grain, bean, and noodle dishes, as well as soups and salads, which are served in bowls but sometimes overlooked in bowl discussions。 Bowls provide a healthy meal, including vegetables, protein, and usually a distinctive sauce in a one-dish meal。 While providing many specific and delicious recipes, ATK takes the stance that once the basics are mastered, any cook can create innovative and satisfying bowls。 Basics such as developing a pantry, kitchen equipment, arranging, serving, and storing are all included, with an eye toward the reader’s customization。 The book includes instructions for preparing the basic ingredients of bowls: grains, noodles, proteins, vegetables, toppings, dressings and sauces。 The specific bowl recipes span the globe, with Asian, Italian, African, and Mexican recipes sharing pages with various fusion approaches to bowls。 Each recipe begins with a discussion of why the recipe works and ends with suggestions for customizing。 Home cooks can either follow the recipes exactly or adjust them to suit their own tastes, allowing for both novice cooks and those with more experience to find something useful and delicious in this book。This review first appeared in Library Journal。 。。。more
