After finding this Italian, bright red ceramic, I immediately knew I wanted to use it to eat a warming dish. I recently had a Greek lemon rice soup while traveling, tasting bright and flavorful, yet simple and warming.

The combination of a warming rice dish and this gorgeous ceramic sounded so delightful, that I made this herby green rice & turkey meatball meal specifically for it!

Packed with extra nutrients and a balanced flavor, these savory turkey meatball bowls with creamy herb rice and sun-dried tomato are so delicious! This is the perfect gluten-free, dairy-free dish for an easy weeknight dinner, and even better as leftovers the next day.1
