Fresh and delicious teriyaki shrimp quinoa bowl seasoned with honey, ginger and soy sauce, topped with avocado and mango cucumber salsa.
Teriyaki Shrimp Quinoa Bowl
I love grain bowls. I’m usually attracted to rice bowls, but I also love rice bowls with quinoa. This shrimp teriyaki bowl is excellent! To add flavor to quinoa, cook it in vegetable broth and toss with chopped green onions. While it’s cooking, I make a salsa by dicing mango, cucumber, and jalapeño, and top it with a squeeze of fresh lime with cilantro and a pinch of salt. By the time the quinoa is done the rest is ready and ready to put together.

How to store a shrimp quinoa bowl
I personally don’t like to prep my shrimp days in advance, so I usually eat these teriyaki bowls the night I make them, and have the leftovers for lunch or dinner the next day. Quinoa can be eaten cold or reheated in the microwave.

- hot flavor: Don’t like spicy food? Remove jalapeno seeds and guts.
- Gluten-free bowl: Use tamari instead of soy sauce.
- sweetener: Replace honey with agave.
- protein: Swap the shrimp for chicken or omit for a vegetarian bowl.
- vegetable: For extra veggies, add halved cherry tomatoes or diced bell peppers.
