1

Cook your chosen grain (basmati rice, quinoa, farro, or wild rice) according to package directions until tender. Allow to cool to room temperature or serve warm, depending on preference.

Wash and dice cucumber into bite-sized pieces. Halve or quarter cherry tomatoes. Thinly slice red onion. Pit and halve kalamata olives if using whole ones.

3

Warm cooked chickpeas (or your chosen protein) gently if desired. Chop fresh parsley. Roughly chop pistachios or other nuts. Have tahini-lemon dressing ready (homemade or store-bought).

4

Divide cooked grain between bowls as the base. Arrange fresh vegetables, artichoke hearts, and protein on top in sections or mixed throughout.

5

Drizzle generously with tahini-lemon dressing. Top with fresh parsley and chopped pistachios. Finish with a light drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of black pepper. Serve immediately.
