01
Step 1
Start by tossing cashews, dates, flaxseed meal, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt into your food processor. Blend everything until it’s well combined, then add the coconut oil and keep blending until the mixture sticks together. Scoop out little bites about the size of gumballs, roll them between your hands, and set them on a baking tray. Pop them in the freezer for at least half an hour, and keep them chilled until you’re ready to enjoy.

Step 2
Next, bring some water, brown rice, and a pinch of salt to a boil in a saucepan. Turn the heat down to medium-low, cover it, and let it simmer for about 8 minutes. Then, add the fava beans, red bell pepper, and peas. Cook everything together until the rice is tender, which should take another 6 minutes or so. Drain if there’s any excess water, but don’t rinse the rice. Let it cool completely—this usually takes around 30 minutes.

Step 3
Once the rice is cool, stir in the Swiss cheese and artichoke hearts. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, mustard, and white wine vinegar, then pour this dressing over the rice mixture. Give it a good toss so everything is nicely coated. Pack this into your bento box along with a hard-boiled egg.

Step 4
Spoon some yogurt into another compartment of the bento box, and top it with sliced avocado, a couple of tablespoons of pomegranate seeds, and a sprinkle of chia seeds. Don’t forget to add the cinnamon energy bites to a separate section. Pop the whole box in the fridge until you’re ready to eat.

Step 5
For a refreshing drink, mix blueberries, a few pomegranate seeds, and jasmine buds in a portable container. Fill it with water and let it chill in the fridge for at least 8 hours or overnight. When you’re ready, enjoy it alongside your Buddha bowl.
