Veggie Sushi Bowl With Chlorella By Nourishing Jessica

A quick vegan lunch idea that will refresh, reenergise and nourish with the added detoxifying effect from Organic Burst Chlorella granules - the tasty new sprinkles that inspired our #GetYourCrunchOn competition. This fab recipe invention by the brilliant Jessica Simmons from Nourishing Jessica was one of our 5 winning entries, a clever, yet simple bowl of goodness! 



Jessica, over to you: 

I love this recipe because it is super simple. I was planning on making sushi but I didn't have any nori sheets in my house so I made the next best thing - a sushi bowl! - it is so tasty, so quick and packed with nutrients. The addition of the chlorella granules adds an extra dimension of crunch and also aids in cleansing the liver of toxins. The granules are fast becoming an everyday essential for me and they marry well with almost everything. I just love getting my crunch on!
