Chicken sausage offers lean protein to keep you satisfied, while chickpeas provide extra plant-based protein and fiber to support digestion and steady energy.

I like to top the bowls off with some balsamic vinegar glaze and grated parmesan cheese for some extra flavor. Other great topping ideas could include avocado slices, toasted nuts, or pumpkin seeds.
