Cava Copycat Falafel Mediterranean Bowls

This is my version of a Cava (fast casual Mediterranean restaurant) or Meze Morada (R.I.P. local mediterranean joint formerly in Islamorada, Florida) bowl.

This is completely customizable and really just a loose template. I’m not putting a ton of detail into the amounts here. I make as much as my ingredients will go and eat it for DAYS. You can see the individual amounts I assembled in the photo. I will say after making this if I lived near a Cava I would definitely just go buy this…. I think the savings come when you spend the time making this for multiple people or when you make enough to plan to eat it for several days.

Air Fried Salmon Poke Bowls

I’m hooked on Buddha or grain bowls. I find them so satisfying physically and emotionally. You can’t go wrong with a balanced meal that’s loaded with toppings and flavor. You can make this your own with your favorite add ins. You could also do a different type of fish (perhaps local!) or chicken. I’m a big salmon fan. I typically buy the Publix Greenwise frozen wild sockeye salmon. Salmon is high in omega -3 fatty acids which are great for heart and brain health. Aim for consuming fish twice per week!

Maple Spiced Honeynut Squash

Have you tried honeynut squash before? Honeynut is a winter squash varietal derived from butternut and buttercup. It’s sweeter and about half the size of the typical butternut squash. The peel is edible which saves a lot of time and work.

This would make an easy side for Thanksgiving! It’s easy enough to spice up a weeknight meal as well!
