Can I meal prep these hummus bowls ahead of time?

Absolutely, These are my go-to healthy lunch prep solution. Just store components separately - keep hummus and quinoa in one container, veggies in another. Assemble right before eating to maintain that perfect crunch. They'll stay fresh for 2-3 days in the fridge.

Are Mediterranean hummus bowls gluten-free?

They sure can be, Just use quinoa or rice instead of couscous, and double-check your hummus ingredients (some brands add wheat). Naturally vegetarian and easily made vegan by skipping the feta - these bowls adapt to almost any diet.

What's the best hummus for these bowls?

I'm partial to homemade (extra garlicky is my weakness), but any good-quality store-bought works. Look for hummus with simple ingredients - chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon. The flavored varieties like roasted red pepper add fun twists too.

Can I add meat to make it heartier?

Oh yes, Grilled chicken, lamb meatballs, or even shrimp turn this into a dinner-worthy meal. My husband loves when I add leftover gyro meat - just warm it slightly before topping the bowl.

Help! My hummus makes everything soggy.

Ah, rookie mistake. Spread hummus thickly on the bottom and let quinoa cool completely before layering. Pack dressings separately if prepping ahead. Those crisp veggies should stay perky until the last bite.
