Jazzing up your grain can make the whole week feel more festive, so whether white rice, farro, quinoa, or something else, let your imagination run wild. Packed with nutrients and hearty foods, a big grain bowl can easily be added to lunches and used to build out dinners throughout the week.
Using our fave quinoa from SIMPLi, we're bringing you a delicious bowl with a variety of textures and little pops of flavor that dance across your tongue. Made with only one pot, this recipe couldn’t be simpler.
