Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Grains

    Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Protein

    Season the grilled chicken breast with salt and pepper, and grill over medium heat for 6-8 minutes on each side until cooked through. Alternatively, roast your choice of veggies like bell peppers, zucchini, or mushrooms in the oven at 425°F (220°C) for 20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Bowl

    In a large bowl, start with a base of mixed greens. Add a serving of quinoa, followed by your choice of grilled protein or roasted veggies.

  4. 4

    Add Toppings

    Top your bowl with cherry tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, and feta cheese. Feel free to add any additional toppings you like.

  5. 5

    Dress the Bowl

    Drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar over your bowl. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Toss the ingredients together gently and enjoy your Build Your Own Farmbowl!
