Notes & Variations
- Grain alternatives: Swap the rice for bulgur or barley for a nuttier texture and extra fiber.
- Sauce ideas: A spoonful of tzatziki, chili sauce, or even garlic-yogurt adds creaminess and boosts the flavor profile.
- Make-ahead tip: Both the meatballs and roasted vegetables can be prepared in advance and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
- Serving variation: Try turning this bowl into a wrap using flatbread or pita for a portable option.
- Extra protein: Add a soft-boiled or fried egg on top for a protein boost and a luscious yolk sauce effect.
