Recipe: Spring Power Bowl Salad

Power up your lunch with the on-trend appeal of a healthy salad bowl loaded with nutritious veggies and plant-based protein. Our composed power bowl includes protein-rich quinoa, fresh salad greens, marinated chick peas, avocado, crisp spring veggies and hummus dip finished with a drizzle of olive oil and fresh squeezed lemon. We sprinkled roasted pepitas (pumpkin seeds) and blueberries over our salad for extra flavor and nutrition.
