Simple Grain Bowl

Cook your selected grain following package directions. Allow to cool slightly before assembly.

Cook your chosen protein as needed. Grill chicken breast until cooked through, pan-sear tofu until golden, or use pre-cooked chickpeas and shrimp.

Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until emulsified.

Distribute cooked grain evenly among bowls. Layer with chosen protein, tomatoes, cucumber, carrots, avocado, red onion, feta cheese if desired, pumpkin seeds, and fresh herbs.

Drizzle vinaigrette over each bowl immediately before serving to preserve texture and flavor.
