Millet and Chickpea Bounty Bowls

 

Guys, these Millet and Chickpea Bounty Bowls are packed full of nourishing goodness and perfect for a mid-week dinner on the couch. (And this also lends itself really well to batch cooking, so just one more reason to make it soon.) Also, you can make it a whole-grain fiesta by adding in or swopping out other goodies like brown rice, barley or quinoa. Wherever you end up, it’s loaded with colour and flavour and one of my favourites.

Thanks again to the team at Nature’s Choice for collaborating on this recipe with me to bring more goodness your way. Head over to their page to find out more about their amazing health-boosting product range that I can’t imagine life without, and how to get it delivered to your door.
