Green Protein Bowl With Garlicky Dressing

In this recipe, leafy greens, broccoli, and seeds are topped with a creamy, lemony dressing. This salad has all the varying flavors and textures that its green ingredients bring, plus a little bit of cheesiness. Creamy tahini dressing spiked with lemon and garlic makes it reminiscent of a simplified Caesar, and the generous sprinkling of seeds keeps your belly full. You won't need a side to go with this protein-packed salad.
