  • Mediterranean Bowl Recipe
    Hey everyone! Today, I'm sharing some fantastic tips on how to make a delicious and healthy Mediterranean Bowl. This dish is not only packed with flavor but also loaded with nutritious ingredients. Let's dive in!
    Ingredients:
    • Base: Quinoa, rice, cooked barley, greens or couscous
    • Proteins: Grilled chicken, falafel, or hummus
    • Vegetables: Cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, bell peppers, and olives
    • Healthy Fats: Avocado slices, feta cheese
    • Garnishes: Fresh herbs like parsley, cilantro, or mint and a squeeze of lemon
    Steps:
    1. Prepare the Base: Cook your quinoa or brown rice according to package instructions. If you prefer a lighter option, go with a bed of mixed greens.
    2. Cook the Proteins: Grill your chicken or prepare your falafel. If you're using chickpeas, simply rinse and drain them, then lightly sauté with some olive oil and spices.
    3. Chop the Veggies: Dice the cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, and bell peppers. Slice the olives in half.
    4. Assemble the Bowl: Start with the base, add the proteins, and then pile on the veggies.
    5. Add Healthy Fats: Garnish your bowl with avocado slices, a sprinkle of feta cheese, or a drizzle of tahini.
    6. Finish with Garnishes: Top off your bowl with fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon juice.
    Pro Tips:
    • Marinate Your Proteins: For extra flavor, marinate your grilled chicken or falafel in a blend of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and Mediterranean spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
    • Mix & Match: Feel free to customize your bowl with your favorite vegetables and proteins. The Mediterranean diet is all about variety and balance!
    • Homemade Dressings: Elevate your bowl with a homemade dressing. A simple mix of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and za'atar can do wonders.
    There you have it! A delicious Mediterranean Bowl that's perfect for a wholesome meal. If you try it out, let me know how it turns out in the comments below. Enjoy!

    I so love watching and following you Colleen. And seeing family members in your videos is just an added bonus. I am 71 now and in all my years, I never had the opportunity to live near my relatives, which made our visits with them all the more special. You remind me so much of a couple of my Aunts. Guess that is why I feel so much at home when I sit down with my coffee and share the times I have with you on RUclips. Wishing you and yours all the best.

So nice to see you with your beautiful niece. I’ve been meaning to share a funny little tidbit with you. At 67 my distance vision was becoming more and more of a struggle. Especially as I always watch my RUclips channels in my bedroom on a smaller tv. Well, upon first finding you I thought your channel was named Our Sober Moments. It wasn’t until I put on my new glasses a few weeks later that I realized it was actually Our Silver Moments 😂.
