Hummus Bowl Storage Tips
As these bowls are best made with fresh ingredients, storing them is hard. What you can do is prepare a few ingredients, and keep them separate, ready to use for a quick and easy bowl later on.
If you are adding things like quinoa to your bowl, remember that cooked quinoa will keep in the fridge for up to one week, or up to two to three months when frozen. Chopped vegetables will also keep in the fridge for up to four days.
You can prepare your vegetables, storing them in a glass jar, with the hummus at the bottom. Next, add the harder foods such as olives and chickpeas. Lastly, follow these with the soft vegetables and then the leafy greens. These jars should keep in the fridge for up to four days.
Tips for Making a Hummus Bowl
- The bowls taste best when everything is crisp and presentable, so assemble the salads just before serving.
- You don’t need to add a dressing, though instead of the red wine vinegar, you could add a little olive oil.
- When preparing the vegetables, cut them into bite-sized pieces so that they are easy to eat.
- Quinoa and rice do make the bowl more hearty and filling.
