Since in quarantine, I’ve craved a lot of quality vegetarian meals with loads of flavour. This bowl is definitely a go-to of mine that includes great amounts of fats, protein, fibre, and quality carbohydrates that will keep you satiated until your next meal!

Although many people have the misconception that you need to have animal protein in every meal in order to consume enough ‘protein’, this couldn’t be farther from the truth! This meal offers over 25 grams alone and when accompanied with good fats, your body will definitely be feeling good and energized after this without the crash or cravings afterwards.

If you do desire more protein you can always double the quinoa, hummus, hemp hearts and feta, or of course, add half or a full chicken breast.
