    Green Goddess Bowl with Oil Free Chimichurri

    Jump to Recipe

    We are one day into Spring, so I figured I should just throw every green thing I could at you with this Green Goddess Bowl with Oil Free Chimichurri.

    But seriously, this bowl is one of my all time favorites. You get a ton of fresh greens, healthy quinoa and an AMAZ-ING dressing to top it all off. Chimichurri is traditionally loaded with oil, so to make this a little healthier we are swapping out the oil for avocado. Yep, we're swapping out oil for even more greens.

    We just can't get away from the greens in this recipe.

    This bowl is a good mix of warm and cold. The quinoa and asparagus are cooked beforehand while everything else is kept cool.

    It is also super versatile. Don't have every green on the list? Swap it for something you do have on hand. As long as it's green, it's welcome to join the party.
