Greek Veggie Bowls

I love recipes that are basically just big bowls full of delicious, nutritious ingredients. Eating out of a bowl just feels comforting, don’t you think?

This recipe allows for such versatility, so you can easily omit or substitute ingredients to fit your dietary needs, and you’ll still have a delicious bowl of food!

These bowls are also an easy way to eat the rainbow and load up on those antioxidants and nutrients from greens and veggies.

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread veggies across it in one single layer. Toss with extra-virgin olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper. Bake for 45-5o minutes, or until veggies are soft and start to blister.
3. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add in onion, garlic, and herbs and cook until the onion turns translucent. Add in cauliflower rice and lemon and cook for 5 minutes. Take off heat and set aside.
4. Assemble the bowl! Place roasted veggies and cauliflower rice in serving bowls of choice. Top with hummus, feta cheese (if using), and serve right away or store in an airtight container for later.

Variations: To make this autoimmune protocol compliant, omit all nightshades and add in broccoli, zucchini, squash, sweet potato, brussels sprouts, carrots, etc. Use your favorite herbs and seasonings to change up the flavor profile.
