Chicken Nugget Brunch Bowl

Healthy, beautiful, and delicious! These bowls bring it all! The perfect kickstart to a busy day, or lingering over for brunch.

Tip: Any cooked grain is a great fit for this dish. In a pinch for time – use microwaveable brown rice. For an optional but delicious topping to the finished bowls, thin purchased hummus (flavor of your choice – try beet hummus on these bowls) with hot water to a drizzling consistency. Add just before serving.
