This herb miso coconut bowl makes a quick, high-protein meal that comes together in about 20 minutes. It works well when your fridge looks full of odds and ends and you need a plan. The bowl combines rice, tofu, and greens with a creamy herb sauce that pulls everything together.

Meghan Johnsson at Veg Meg shares this recipe as her go-to fridge clean-out bowl. Coconut milk and white miso form the base of the sauce, while parsley, basil, and mint add brightness. Lime juice and sesame oil keep the flavor sharp and balanced. Tofu and edamame supply plant protein, and vegetables like sugar snap peas and scallions add crunch.
