Fresh, Healthy and Easy
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 chicken breasts (cooked via sous vide or grilled)
- 2 cups cooked quinoa
- 1 cup cucumber, sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- ½ cup kalamata olives, halved
- 1 cup chopped Romaine lettuce
- 1 container crumbled Feta cheese (plain or garlic/ herb flavor)
- Pita wedges
- Favorite Hummus
- Favorite premade tzatziki sauce
Instructions
- Prepare chicken breasts: I sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper and sous vide these to be ready in time for dinner. You can do the same simple seasonings or marinade in a Greek salad dressing and grill the chicken as well.
- Prepare quinoa as directed. I use chicken broth in place of water in the directions.
- Slice cucumbers, tomato, olives, and lettuce.
- Prepare each bowl with quinoa, then desired veggies, sliced chicken, then feta cheese on top.
- Serve with hummus, tzatziki sauce, and pita wedges.
Notes
- For my kids, I separate meat, quinoa, veggies, hummus and pita, as they prefer a bowl with “sections”.
- Warming the naan bread or pita slightly before serving is a nice touch.
- Sometimes I crisp the quinoa to add texture. This is easy to do if you bake the prepared quinoa on a baking sheet at 350 for about 20 minutes with some olive oil drizzled on top. It is not necessary and does take the extra time, but it is a fun variation.
