I still can’t quite say the word “pegan dinner” with a straight face because I think it’s funny how many terms we create to describe our way of eating. At one point in life I was an lacto ovo vegetarian. I’ve also been paleo<\/a><\/span> for stint and plant-based<\/a><\/span> for over a year.<\/p>\n

At my core I believe in everything in moderation (that’s how I feed my kids<\/a><\/span>) but I think it’s OK to play around with your diet to see what makes you feel your best. So while I’m not overly strict about it, a pegan (pegan = the best of paleo combined with the best of vegan<\/a><\/span>) diet feels like a good fit for me.<\/p>\n

So what if you don’t really care about a food label and just want something that tastes delicious and will nourish your body? Excellent! Just skip that intro and scroll down to check out 7 savory dinner bowls that are enticing and able to be customized easily to accommodate the whole family. <\/p>\n

How to Make a Balanced Dinner Bowl<\/h2>\n

I think the key to a great dinner bowl (or heck, lunch bowl) is to include a lot of colorful veggies, plenty of healthy fats, and a form of protein. I personally try to use meat like a condiment instead of the star of the show and feel that works well for me. That combination satisfies my taste buds and also sticks with me for the long haul. I picture my personal bowls here, but sometimes I go back and have seconds, so please don’t compare portion sizes. I just eat until I’m satisfied!<\/p>\n
