I’ve had grain bowls on the brain for quite awhile now, and this past weekend we ventured out to Fresh Market to pick up a few essential items, including a few for this grain bowl. First, I just have to say that I’m more impressed with Fresh Market with every visit. Especially given the uncertain times we are currently in. Everything was stocked, from fresh produce to ready to make meals, and everyone in the store was keeping their recommended distance from one another. They’d even taped off how much space to leave between each customer at each checkout station.
Now for the grain bowls. It’s clear that I had the Italian flag in mind for my grain bowls, as you’ll notice. With the green coming from the zucchini, the white from the jasmine rice for my bowl, and the feta cheese from my mom’s bowl, followed by the red via the cherry tomatoes.
When I was originally coming up with the concept for those bowls I had shrimp in mind, but I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to find them (they had the perfect cocktail shrimp at FM) so my back up plan was the Perdue Organic Chicken Nuggets that I had in the freezer. So if you’d rather use chicken versus shrimp, that works too!
