The Eggplant Parmesan Quinoa Bowl is a modern twist on traditional eggplant parmesan. Instead of serving it with spaghetti or heavy pasta, this bowl comes with a base of Cilantro-Lime Quinoa, making it gluten-free, fiber-rich, and perfect for health-conscious foodies.
Topped with crispy grilled breaded eggplant, roasted red pepper tomato basil sauce, fresh spinach, and a decadent mix of fresh mozzarella and parmesan cheese, it’s a bowl of bold flavor and texture. It’s served with fresh bread and house-made hot sauce to complete the experience.
This thoughtful combination of ingredients makes the dish vegetarian-friendly and ideal for anyone seeking a plant-powered meal without compromising on flavor.
