Green Goddess Bowl

Here's another one that I have had three times in the last week... A good sign that I am definitely obsessed. This bad boy is super fast and easy, but is so filling and creamy. YUM


Main Dish:
1/2 tsp coconut oil
1 small onion (diced)
1 zucchini (ends removed and shaved with a vegetable peeler-- you'll end up with a chunk in the middle at the end that you can't shave. Just chop it into fine pieces.)
2 big hand fulls kale (stems removed and chopped)
3/4 cup garbanzo beans

Sauce:
1 ripe avocado (seeded and removed from skin)
1 clove or 1/2 tsp minced garlic
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 - 1/3 cup coconut milk (other non-dairy milk will work)
Fresh Basil or dried spices of choice
salt and pepper to taste

Process: Heat coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion. Let them soften for about 2 minutes. Add the shaved zucchini. Let cook for 2 more minutes. Add the kale and cook until kale is wilted and the zucchini is soft and starting to get golden from the pan. Add the garbanzo beans and turn off the heat. Leave pan covered.
Take all ingredients for the sauce and place in blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Dish up veggies and top with creamy sauce. Mix and enjoy!! :)

** Makes 2 good sized servings... Or one if you reallllyyyy reallllyyyy like it. (Guilty...)

P.s. this meal can be saved. Just add a little more lemon juice to the avocado sauce and put it in a baggie and refrigerate. Just heat up the left over veggies and top with the sauce.

Additional add in ideas:
--Mushrooms
--Spinach
--Quinoa
