Mixed Herb Quinoa Bowl

Full flavour, plant powered, easy to assemble and ridiculously delish, this dish hits all the Nourished marks. Leafy greens, healthy fats and clean proteins come together in a beautiful one bowl wonder. Even yummier leftover. Don't be afraid of the lengthy list, I swear it is worth it.
