Ingredients

Scale

Grains

  • 1 cup quinoa

Greens

  • 2 cups leafy greens (spinach, kale, or mixed greens)

Seeds

  • 2 tablespoons mixed seeds (pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds)

Vegetables

  • 1 cup assorted raw vegetables, chopped (carrots, cucumbers, bell peppers, cherry tomatoes)

Instructions

  1. Cook Quinoa: Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water to remove any bitterness. Combine rinsed quinoa with 2 cups of water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until quinoa is fluffy and water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it stand covered for 5 minutes.
  2. Prepare Vegetables and Greens: While quinoa cooks, wash and chop the vegetables and leafy greens into bite-sized pieces to ensure they are fresh and crisp for assembling the bowl.
  3. Assemble Bowl Ingredients: In a large bowl, layer the cooked quinoa as the base, then add the leafy greens, chopped vegetables, and sprinkle the mixed seeds on top for added texture and nutrition. Optionally drizzle with your favorite dressing or a squeeze of lemon juice for extra flavor.

Notes

  • Quinoa can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Feel free to add protein options such as grilled chicken, tofu, or beans for a more filling meal.
  • Customize the vegetables and seeds based on seasonal availability and personal preference.
  • For additional flavor, top with a light vinaigrette or tahini sauce.
