If you're looking for a kōan or sutra that explains “Green Goddess Buddha,” you can stop now. Put away the theology books and open up the cookbooks, because nirvana is just a bite away with this healthy and, aha, green bowl. Kale, apple, and cucumber mix with a delightful green goddess sauce you'll make yourself. Add cashews for a soft salty hit, and farro for your grain, and you've got yourself your own moment of zen. Not so much an “om,” but most definitely “yum.”
