A Whole30 Thai Breakfast Bowl recipe that is perfect for both breakfast and lunch alike. With all of the nutrient dense vegetables inside and the creamy cashew dressing, you’re going to go in for seconds… and thirds!
The reality of it is, that those who follow a paleo lifestyle and a vegan lifestyle aren’t all that different. I’m not sure why there is so much animosity between the two groups at times.
Sure, vegans don’t eat meat. However, those who are die-hard Paleo advocates, will only purchase their meat from local purveyors who exercise responsible and ethical farm-keeping practices.
So, we both care for animals- check, check! See? Am I on to something here?
This Whole30 Thai Breakfast Bowl will leave you feeling extremely satiated. If you’re feeling like you want to add some meat to it though, I’d recommend grilling up some chicken breast or thighs to plop right on top! My husband, Tim and I ate this entire salad sans meat, and there were definitely no complaints. Tim was actually really surprised about how much he enjoyed it.
I don’t usually make salads because I find them to be rather boring but when I bring curry to the table, boring is the last word on my mind!
The bold colors in this Whole30 Thai Breakfast Bowl are representative of all of the bold nutrients and vitamins all of its ingredients possess.
The blackberries are full of antioxidants, the cashews are full of healthy fats, there is an excess of vitamin A coming from those carrots and plenty of magnesium, potassium and omega-3 fatty acids in all of that kale!
Seriously, I have hooked you up!

How long will dressing stay good in fridge??
Hi there. The dressing will keep for about a week in an airtight container!
What if I don’t have blackberries
Then, absolutely use blueberries! I’m not sure I’d recommend strawberries or raspberries though… you can omit them if you’d like!
That pour shot? Brilliant and beautiful. This salad? Brilliant and beautiful! Definitely going to try it out this summer! <3
