Are you in need of some easy, balanced & delicious recipe ideas? This week we are sharing 10 delicious grain bowl recipes.
What is a grain bowl?
A grain bowl is a complete meal that typically contains a grain base, protein source, vegetables, other toppings (nuts, seeds, cheese), and a sauce or dressing.
Why do we love grain bowls?
Grain bowls contain all the elements of a balanced meal. All of the ingredients required for a grain bowl create a complete and balanced meal full of fiber, protein, & healthy fats.
Easy to meal prep
You can make all of the ingredients for your grain bowls ahead of time for an easy assembly when it’s time to eat. You can even prep several grain bowls in smaller containers ahead of time for a grab and go lunch option.
Variety of flavor
There are SO MANY different flavor combinations & recipes for grain bowls. Even if you keep the same grain & protein, you can get creative with your toppings, seasonings & sauces, so you will never get bored!
Great way to clean out the fridge
Grain bowls are an excellent option for when you have produce that needs to be used or trying to create a balanced meal with what you have on hand. There is no wrong way to make a grain bowl. It’s as simple as starting with a grain, protein source, and adding your favorite vegetables and sauces!
