Method
 

Prepare the Hummus Base
  1. Spread about ⅓ cup of hummus in the bottom of each serving bowl.
Cook the Grains
  1. Cook the quinoa or couscous according to package instructions. Cool slightly before adding to the bowl.
Assemble the Vegetables
  1. Divide cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and red onion evenly among the bowls, arranging them on top of the hummus.
Add Protein
  1. Place your chosen protein (falafel, grilled chicken, or tofu) on top of the vegetables in each bowl.
Top with Olives and Feta
  1. Add olives and sprinkle crumbled feta cheese, if using. For extra crunch, add roasted chickpeas.
Prepare the Tahini Lemon Dressing
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, water, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Adjust thickness with water to reach your desired consistency.
Garnish and Serve
  1. Drizzle olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice over each bowl. Sprinkle with za’atar or paprika and fresh parsley or mint. Drizzle with the tahini lemon dressing just before serving.

Notes

Ingredient Swap: I've found that sometimes I don't have feta on hand, and a sprinkle of toasted pine nuts can add a lovely richness and crunch that complements the other flavors
