Ingredients

  • 1 rotisserie chicken, pulled and finely diced
  • 1 cup quinoa, cooked
  • 1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 cup kalamata olives, diced
  • 1 8 oz container of tzatziki
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce, finely diced
  • Olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and hot sauce (optional), to taste
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Cook 1 cup of quinoa according to package directions and let it cool.
  • Pull apart the rotisserie chicken and finely dice it.
  • Rinse and drain the can of chickpeas.
  • Dice the cucumber and kalamata olives, and finely dice the romaine lettuce.
  • Assemble the bowls: start by adding a layer of tzatziki to the bottom of each container.
  • Layer in the chicken, quinoa, chickpeas, diced cucumber, and diced olives.
  • Add a splash of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and hot sauce if using, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Top with the finely diced romaine. Serve, or seal and refrigerate for meal prep.

Notes

  • Putting the tzatziki on the bottom and the romaine on top keeps the lettuce crisp for meal prep.
  • Use any cooked grain like rice, farro, or couscous in place of quinoa, and swap the rotisserie chicken for grilled chicken, shrimp, or chickpeas for vegetarian.
  • Add feta, cherry tomatoes, or red onion for even more Mediterranean flavor.
