Mediterranian Greek Chicken Bowl

These bowls are a feast for both the eyes and the plate, combining tender, marinated chicken with a balance of fresh, crisp vegetables and a tangy tzatziki sauce. When it comes to my meals, I love to have it all mixed up in a bowl, so that I can get a little bit of everything all in one bite! It just brings the meal to another level for me. For someone who doesn’t mind their food touching, this meal is for you. My favorite thing about these bowls is you can get the juicy, tender chicken, the fresh rainbow of vegetables, and the zesty tzatziki sauce all together. The flavors complement each other perfectly and explode like fireworks in your mouth. This meal is perfect for meal prepping, but in that instance, I would advise keeping the vegetables in a separate container so that when heating back up your chicken it doesn't ruin that freshness.
