Mediterranean Veggie Rice Bowls
When you dig into one of these Mediterranean Veggie Rice Bowls, you’ll scoop up harissa chickpeas, fresh spinach, sauteed mushrooms and pan roasted red peppers. Feta cheese and kalamata olives will cling to all of that goodness to give it even more flavor. The lemon seasoned basmati brown rice will finish everything off nicely.
For the Rice:
1 C cooked brown basmati rice
1 tbsp lemon juice
¼ tsp extra virgin olive oil
salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
For the Veggies:
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided
8 oz baby bella mushrooms, sliced
1 small red bell pepper, sliced
1 C of cooked chickpeas. I used reduced sodium, organic canned chickpeas
1 tbsp Harissa, plus more for garnish
3 C fresh baby spinach
Feta, kalamata olives, lemon wedges and fresh chopped oregano for garnish
