This amazing bowl is loaded with sooo much goodness! The entire time I was eating it, I kept commenting on how good it was with the combination of flavors. I recently was introduced to both sumac and za’atar as seasoning choices, and I can’t believe I hadn’t heard of them before! Sumac is such a fun spice as it adds a tartness and a hint of sweetness to your food! Paired with the mix of herbs and zingy brightness of the Za’atar seasoning, this is the perfect bowl of middle eastern flavors! I love the refreshing yogurt drizzle that just adds that additional pop of yum! This bowl is super healthy and needs to be on your try it list! I promise, you’ll be adding to your favorites for sure!
