Life Alive Organic Cafe has partnered with Row 7 Seeds to prove that nourishing food can be downright irresistible! The highlight of this partnership is the Plant Power Bowl, a limited-time special centered around Row 7’s famous Koginut squash. Bred specifically for a rich, nutty flavor and velvety texture, this squash anchors a dish that packs over 30 different plants into a single serving. Available through January 31, this bowl is an effortless way to supercharge your nutrition without obsessing over calorie counts.

This bowl features slow-roasted squash seasoned with Moroccan spices, sitting alongside a vibrant mix of spicy cabbage slaw, kale, beets, and shiitake and oyster mushrooms. The base is a hearty blend of brown rice and quinoa topped with a white bean and edamame salad. Finished with lemon tahini and a drizzle of salsa verde, the flavors are bold and satisfying. The Senior Director of Innovation at Life Alive, Dylan Mendelsohn, notes that the squash provided the perfect opportunity to build a bowl around one extraordinary ingredient while layering in gut-enriching components. It is a meal that feels genuinely satisfying and warm!
