Happy Friday, friends! I’m excited to be sharing this delicious recipe for Greek Couscous Salad Lunch Bowls with you today!! This is one of our family’s favourite light lunch recipes lately and I just had to share it with you. I don’t know about you, but our family is all over the place when it comes to our weekly schedule and meals. My husband’s job is very unpredictable and so even though we often get to enjoy lunch AND dinner together as a family some days, there are also plenty of days where we’re all going in different directions and need a healthy meal on the go.
This Greek Couscous Salad Lunch Bowls recipe is SO easy to throw together on a meal-prep Sunday (or even a Monday morning!) and it keeps in the fridge for up to 4 days. The couscous makes this salad so filling and the veggies and herbs are so fresh-tasting, making this light lunch bursting with bright flavours. The dressing is so easy to make and you can use whatever Greek-inspired veggies you like! Serve it with some grilled chicken sliced on top for extra protein, or even tofu for a vegetarian option. The possibilities are endless!
