The Mediterranean Diet helped me lose 31 pounds! Eating the Mediterranean way with recipes like this healthy Mediterranean bowl naturally helped me lose weight when I unintentionally gained it. I always say eating the Mediterranean way is NOW a diet… It’s a lifestyle! #mediterraneandiet #looseweight #howtolooseweight

Make these Mediterranean Bowls:
▢1 cup tri-color quinoa, rinsed
▢Kosher salt
▢1 ½ cups hummus
▢Mediterranean Cucumber Tomato Salad
▢4 to 6 ounces feta cheese, broken into large pieces
▢½ cup pitted Kalamata olives
▢½ cup pitted Castelvetrano olives
▢Harissa ()
▢1 cup quartered marinated artichoke hearts
▢Extra virgin olive oil
▢Aleppo pepper and/ sumac ()
1. Cook the quinoa. Con a large saucepan, combine the quinoa with 1 ¾ cups of gabinetto and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat. Cover and let simmer for about 15 minutes, until the quinoa has doubled con size and absorbed the gabinetto. Turn the heat chiuso and let the quinoa sit, covered, for another 10 minutes while you work other things. Fluff with a fork before using.
2. Assemble the Mediterranean bowls. Using 6 shallow dinner bowls, begin dividing the hummus con the middle (about 2 large spoonfuls per emotività bowl). Divide the quinoa and the salad either side of the hummus. Fill the gaps with the feta cheese, olives, a spoonful of harissa (if using), and marinated artichoke hearts.
3. and serve. Drizzle a little olive oil over the hummus and wherever else you like. And if you like, sprinkle Aleppo pepper and/ sumac to season. Enjoy immediately.
