German term or phrase: Schüsselwirtschaft
It this like a "house salad" or "pub salad"? It's on a menu I'm working on under the Salad section:

Schüsselwirtschaft - Gedämpfter Bulgur, dazu frische Avocado- und Apfelspalten, marinierte Rote Bete, Zucchinispiralen, Heidelbeeren und Himbeer-Dressing.

I cannot find "Schüsselwirtschaft" anywhere, but I know Schüssel=dish, wirtschaft=restaurant. So, I was thinking it's like the equivelent of a "house salad" in the US?

English translation:Buddha bowls
Explanation:
I would translate these as Buddha bowls. I'm a great fan of Buddha bowls and after working through numerous different recipes, I can safely say that there doesn't seem to be any hard and fast rules governing what can go into a Buddha bowl. The general idea, however, is that they are healthy, nutritious and served in just the one bowl.

One might assume by calling this a “Buddha Bowl” I’m making some kind of political or religious statement, when in fact, I am not. I just like giant bowls of food.
A “Buddha Bowl,” as defined by urban dictionary, is “a bowl which is packed so full that it has a rounded ‘belly’ appearance on the top much like the belly of a buddha.”

Buddha bowls, nourish bowls, rainbow bowls, hippie bows, macro bowls, yoga bowls… these beauties have many names and have become increasingly popular over the past couple of years.

neutral  philgoddard: If I understand it correctly, this is the name of a dish.

  -> Perhaps. But that would be an odd choice for just ONE dish.

Goody bowl


Explanation:
"Wirtschaft" is also used to describe something that is/looks messy, as in „was ist denn das für eine Wirtschaft! "

cp the "Goody bowl" listed here under entrees:

(My local eatery calls this the "Buddha Bowl")

You could add "healthy" to make clear that it's not a bowl of sugary treats, but the listing under Salads should speak for itself!

agree  philgoddard: That's a good idea. I think you just need to ignore the German and invent a name.

  -> Thank you.

agree  Herbmione Granger: Although Johanna Timm, Dr., has mentioned it, she has resolved on the "messy" interpretation. My eye would probably eat the dish described, but I would not ;)
