It seems grain bowls have as many variations as there are stars in the sky, and there is no wrong way to build one! But we prefer to keep things classic and simple with hummus, quinoa, avocado and loads of veggies!

It was tasty, filling and super fast! I changed quinoa by couscous (I mixed them in my mind by mistake) and it made the process even faster, since couscous cooks in 5 min. I was thinking on how good the recipe was even when I was trying to fall asleep in my bed haha. Read More

Super easy to make and totally delicious! I pan-roasted my bell pepper used a bit of it for the dressing and the rest I served with the bowl along with more chopped parsley on top. I prepped all my veggies while the quinoa was in the rice cooker done in 30 minutes. Loved it! Read More

Really good for a raw vegan recipe. Sometimes I add olives and feta cheese for extra richness and flavor. Read More
