RECIPE: Beet & Quinoa Nourish Bowl

Let’s be real — if your period had a love language, it would be “feed me nourishing sh*t and let me lie down.” This lunch is a literal hug in a bowl. It’s grounding, vibrant, and packed with the iron-rich, hormone-healing goodness your body is begging for during your bleed.

Forget sad desk salads. This is the kind of meal that says, “I honor the goddess within, even if she’s bleeding like a crime scene.”


Colorful salad bowl with spinach, quinoa, beets, squash, and avocado on rustic table. Vivid purples, greens, and orange create a fresh vibe.

Why this recipe is perfect during your menstrual phase:

When you're on your period, you're literally losing blood (and with it, iron and minerals). Your energy is lower. Your digestion slows down. And your body needs deeply supportive nutrients — not just to function, but to thrive through the cycle reset.


This bowl delivers:

  • Iron to replenish blood loss

  • Fiber to keep digestion smooth and estrogen moving out

  • Protein and healthy fats to help you feel full, satisfied, and stable

  • Anti-inflammatory support to soothe cramps and bloating


🌟 Star Ingredients & Hormonal Benefits:

  • Beets – Natural blood builders that support liver detox and iron levels (plus, they make your bowl look hella pretty).

  • Quinoa – A complete plant protein with magnesium and fiber to reduce cramps and stabilize your energy.

  • Dark Leafy Greens – Like kale or spinach, packed with iron and calcium to rebuild and soothe.

  • Tahini – Rich in zinc and healthy fats for hormone production and immune support.

  • Pumpkin & Flax Seeds – These seed cycle superstars support estrogen balance and reduce inflammation.

  • Avocado – Healthy fats = happy hormones and a happier mood.

💡 Big-Sister Pro Tips:

  1. Roast your beets and greens ahead of time so this bowl takes less than 5 minutes to throw together.

  2. Drizzle tahini + lemon as your dressing — it’s creamy, tangy, and hormone-nourishing AF.

  3. Top with a poached egg for extra iron and protein (or hemp seeds if you're plant-based).
