Green Cabbage Crunch Grain Bowls

Heads up! Soak your cashews overnight. Our nut-free people can use a plain, whole milk Greek yogurt.

There’s a viral recipe on TikTok right now by Baked By Melissa that is a cabbage-based green goddess salad that is served as a dip. These bowls are loosely inspired by her salad - mostly taking cues from the textural elements that add to the crunch factor.

This is intended to be a lunch salad that is hearty enough to stay all week in the fridge. It is also incredibly versatile. Instead of rice you can use lentils, white beans, farro, or quinoa. It is vegan as written but so good with a little feta or goat cheese sprinkled in. We grilled some marinated flank steak for the top for the hungrier ones in our bunch.
