What is a Buddha Bowl? Well, there's some debate surrounding this question because everyone makes theirs differently. Is it only a Buddha Bowl if you eat it with fancy chopsticks? I say it's a Buddha Bowl if it's high protein goodness in a bowl… and that's what this is!

If you use the avocado each bowl is 5 points, if you don't you are looking at ONLY 2 points!
