Ingredients
  

For the steak grain bowls

  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil for brushing
  • 1 lb Flank or skirt steak
  • 1 cup Hummus
  • 2 cups Cooked quinoa (from ⅔ cup dry quinoa)
  • 2 cups Cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 medium Green bell pepper (diced, about ¾ – 1 cup)
  • ½ small Red onion (diced, about ½ cup)
  • ½ cup Crumbled feta
  • ½ cup Pitted kalamata olives halved

For the herb yogurt dressing

  • 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
  • 1 small Garlic clove grated or minced
  • ½ teaspoon Dried oregano (or ½ tablespoon fresh)
  • ½ tablespoon Fresh mint (or ½ teaspoon dried)
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Pepper
  • ¼ cup Olive oil

Instructions
 

For the steak grain bowls

  • Pat steak dry with paper towel. Season both sides with salt and pepper and let sit out at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
  • Heat grill or cast iron grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush grill pan with olive oil, or if using a grill, brush steak with olive oil. Grill steak, turning once, until instant-read thermometer inserted into center reads 130 to 135 degrees F for medium-rare (about 4-5 minutes per side) or 135-145 degrees F for medium (about 6-7 minutes per side). Transfer steak to cutting board and let rest for at least 10 minutes.
  • Thinly slice steak against the grain.
  • To prepare bowls, spread hummus over half of the bowl and fill the other half with quinoa.
  • Place steak over the quinoa and top with tomatoes, bell pepper, red onion, feta, and olives.
  • Drizzle herb yogurt dressing over top and garnish with additional mint as desired.

For the herb yogurt dressing

  • Whisk yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, oregano, mint, salt and pepper until combined.
  • While whisking, slowly drizzle in olive oil until dressing is smooth and creamy.

Notes

For a time-saver, you could top these bowls with a store-bought Tzatziki or Greek dressing. Meal prep the components ahead of time over the weekend so you can easily build the bowls for dinner or lunches during the week.
