Jamie’s Go-To Protein Bowl
I think it's safe to say this meal has become a full-blown obsession in my house. We’ve had it on repeat so much that I honestly don’t know what life was like before these protein bowls. They’re insanely easy, endlessly customizable, and oh-my-gosh delicious. Seriously, some days, we’re eating these twice a day, and no one’s complaining.
Here’s the deal—this isn’t a strict recipe. Think of it more like a guide where you can mix and match whatever you’re craving (or whatever’s chilling in your fridge). BUT…if you want perfection every single time (because, duh), this is my go-to combo:
🥗 The Base
Start with a big handful of organic arugula. It’s low in oxalates and has this subtle peppery bite that adds so much flavor.
🍗 The Protein
This isn’t the time to be shy with your protein. My usual rotation includes:
🥑 The Toppings
Here’s what I reach for every time (and yes, it’s a must to go organic):
Organic fresh tomato
Organic avocado
Raw cheddar cheese
Organic red onion
🥣 The Dressing
Okaaay, brace yourselves because this dressing? It might just steal the show. It's my own little creation, and FAIR WARNING…you’ll want to put it on everything.
Jamie’s Maple Dijon Balsamic Vinegarette Dressing (For Everything, Not Just Bowls)
1 cup olive oil (good quality)
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup maple syrup (trust me on this)
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tbsp salt
1/2 tbsp pepper
Just toss all of that into a jar, give it a good shake.
Last I love to top it all with Yellow Bird Jalapeno Hot Sauce! 🥵
Not only does this meal taste amazing, but it's also versatile and ridiculously easy to throw together. Some days I’ll roast a chicken or cook up a steak in advance so I can quickly assemble a bowl whenever hunger strikes. (Pro tip: Prep your proteins at the start of the week!)
xo,
Jamie
