QUICK & EASY WEEK NIGHT DINNER - Greek Quinoa Bowl
This meal kept getting pushed out of the rotation every week, I just was not excited about it. I thought it was going to be bland and boring. I finally bit the bullet and forced myself to make it. I was so pleasantly surprise. Never underestimate simple ingredients creating delicious combinations.

QUICK & EASY Greek Quinoa Bowl
HERE IS WHAT YOU NEED: shrimp, quinoa (this is what I used), 1 bundle of asparagus, 1 container cherry tomatoes, 2-3 cloves garlic, Cavender's All Purpose Greek Seasoning, half a lemon juiced, olive oil, salt + pepper
WHY THIS WORKS DURING THE WEEK: This recipe would really work with any protein option, even tofu. Using the microwave quinoa packs from Central Market significantly cut down on time, this recipe only took about 15 minutes.

Eating disorders impact the entire family system, and while so much of the treatment process is focused on the client, the caregivers tend to struggle at home with minimal support. Join Dallas Nutritional Counseling for a two-hour parent workshop, where we will bridge the gap between what the client needs and what the family needs. In this workshop you will gain a deeper understanding of the vital role you play in the recovery process, connect with other families going through the recovery process, and feel more confident in supporting your loved one. We will also be joined by Hila Eyal whose daughter struggled with an eating disorder and now is in recovery. Hila will share their family story of how they navigated the recovery process at the beginning, in the middle, and now ongoing.
