INTRODUCING OUR NEW BUCKWHEAT BOWL!
It’s a delicious mix of buckwheat and yes, it’s gluten free and low FODMAP, harvested from a plant valued for its grain-like seeds. We add roasted cumin carrots & parsnips with lemon-tahini dressing.
ORIGIN: The dish comes to us from the Mediterranean/Middle-Eastern region and is packed with low FODMAP depth of flavor and nutrients, deliciously gluten-free. Ingredients include naturally sweet carrots and parsnips, as the cumin mixture gives a rounder flavor. This cumin flavor is also gently reflected in the gluten-free buckwheat base. The Lemon-tahini dressing is like the cherry on top.
Our Buckwheat Bowl is high in protein and rich in Omega 3 & 6.
