How to Make Caesar Salad Nourish Bowls
These caesar salad bowls consist of five simple components that combine for a flavorful, balanced meal:
Grains – we used nutrient-packed, fluffy millet for these bowls, but other grains like brown rice or quinoa would also work well. Roasted root veggies – you can use up any root veggies you have around, but we love beets and carrots for their natural sweetness and vibrant colors. Beans – lemony, herby white beans add protein and fiber to keep you feeling satisfied. Lettuce – crunchy romaine adds classic caesar salad feels, but any mixed greens will work. Dressing – our fan-favorite 5-Minute Vegan Caesar Dressing gets drizzled over the bowls, bringing all the components together.
We start by cooking the millet on the stovetop and getting the root veggies in the oven. While the millet and root veggies are cooking, there’s plenty of time to season the white beans, make the dressing, and chop the lettuce. For the beans, we drain and rinse a can of white beans, then add garlic, lemon juice, oil, salt, pepper, and parsley to elevate their flavor. The hummus-based caesar dressing comes together in a bowl with spicy mustard, lemon zest and juice, capers, garlic, salt, and pepper. You can use store-bought dressing for ease, but we highly recommend giving this simple homemade version a try! With all the components ready, all that’s left is to add them to a serving bowl and enjoy! We hope you LOVE these caesar salad bowls!
