RECIPE OF THE WEEK -Purposeful Quinoa Bowl – Fuel Your Body, Fuel Your Purpose

Let’s talk about food with a purpose.

When life gets busy (which, let’s be real, is all the time), it’s easy to grab whatever is convenient and call it a meal—hello, leftover kids’ snacks and another cup of coffee. But if you’re craving more energy, mental clarity, and a body that actually feels GOOD, what you eat matters.

Enter: The Purposeful Quinoa Bowl.

This isn’t just a salad—it’s a power-packed, protein-filled, brain-fueling meal that will keep you energized, satisfied, and ready to tackle whatever midlife throws at you.

✔️ Balanced & nourishing (so you stay full and focused without crashing).

✔️ Packed with greens & nutrients (because midlife needs more than just caffeine).

✔️ Super easy to prep ahead (because we don’t have time for fussy meals).

Let’s get into it!

Why This Bowl is a Game-Changer

🚨 Because what you eat affects EVERYTHING—your energy, your mood, and even your sense of purpose.

You know those days when:

✔️ Your brain feels foggy, like you’re moving through quicksand?

✔️ You’re running on coffee, but still somehow exhausted?

✔️ You’re snapping at your family, and you don’t even know why?

Yeah, your body is BEGGING for better fuel.

This quinoa bowl is loaded with hormone-balancing, brain-boosting, energy-sustaining ingredients that help you feel like YOU again.

Here’s why it works:

💡 Quinoa = Packed with protein, fiber, and essential nutrients (aka, it keeps you full and focused).

💡 Chickpeas (or grilled chicken) = Extra protein to support muscle health and steady energy.

💡 Avocado = Healthy fats to fuel your brain and balance hormones.

💡 Greens & carrots = Antioxidants + fiber to support digestion and fight inflammation.

💡 Hemp seeds = A powerhouse of omega-3s, protein, and minerals.

💡 Arbonne Greens Powder (optional but amazing!) = An extra dose of greens, vitamins, and digestive support.
