Cumin Spiced Lamb Hummus Bowls
I really love these bowls because they are fresh and light thanks to the cucumber salad but packed with flavor from the cumin spiced lamb. The hummus add a nice creamy texture and pita rounds things out. Of course don’t skip out on that feta! Bowls are so great for meal prep because it’s easy to keep everything separate or divide everything into containers for lunches and dinners for the week.
For me, whenever I cook once and twice it’s a big win! Even though we’ve been spending more time at home, somehow things are still always busy. And don’t get me started on the dishes. So that’s why I love making these bowls! Sometimes I will even double the recipe since BMW and I both like to eat these bowls for lunches.
