Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa or couscous
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cup canned chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (or vegan alternative)
  • 1/2 cup hummus (store‑bought or homemade)
  • 2 tbsp extra‑virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley or mint, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Divide cooked quinoa or couscous evenly among bowls.
  2. Arrange cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, chickpeas, olives, and feta in sections over the grains.
  3. Warm hummus slightly if desired and add a dollop to each bowl.
  4. In a small jar or bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
  5. Drizzle the dressing over the bowls.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley or mint.
  7. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days (add dressing just before serving).

Notes

  • Swap grains: use farro, brown rice, or barley instead of quinoa.
  • Make it vegan: omit feta or use a plant-based alternative.
  • Add roasted vegetables like zucchini, eggplant, or sweet potato for warmth and depth.
  • Boost protein: add grilled chicken, tuna, or boiled eggs.
  • Adjust seasoning: add za’atar, sumac, or a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
