FAQ
What grain can I use instead of quinoa?
Brown rice, bulgur, millet or barley all work. Choose rice or millet for a gluten-free bowl and adjust the cooking time for the selected grain.
How far ahead can I prepare the bowl?
Quinoa, chickpeas and firm chopped vegetables keep for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. Add arugula, hummus and dressing just before eating.
Can I turn the hummus into a thinner dressing?
Yes. Mix it with some of the lemon juice and 1–2 tablespoons water until it is thin enough to drizzle over the bowl.
