Ingredients

For the Salad

  • ½ cup cherry-tomatoes, halved
  • 1 small cucumber, cubed
  • 2 spring-onions, thinly chopped
  • small bunch of parsley, chopped

  • olive-oil

For the Bowl

  • cup chickpeas, canned, rinsed & drained
  • 1 tbsp tzatziki
  • black-pepper, freshly ground
  • 2 tbsp hummus
  • 2-3 tbsp quinoa, cooked
  • 7-8 olives

Instructions

  • Salad: Wash the vegetables, chop them, put into a mixing-bowl. Add olive-oil, vinegar, and salt to taste.
  • Assemble your bowl: Salad, rinsed & drained chickpeas, quinoa and olives. In the middle/on top: add 2 tablespoons hummus & 1 tablespoon tzatziki + freshly-ground black-pepper. Then serve and enjoy.

Notes

Instead than tzatziki, here I utilized this recipe.
This similar salad would also go nicely in this bowl (not vegan).
Meal Prep alternative: Keep all sections of the Mediterranean Bowl in separate containers in the refrigerator & assemble just before serving. Rather than the fresh salad it is also possible to pre-cut a cucumber and utilize entire cherry-tomatoes.
