The Perfect Mediterranean Bowl Recipe

Craving a taste of the Mediterranean? These vibrant bowls are all the rage for a reason: they're bursting with fresh flavors, healthy fats, and endless customization options.  This recipe provides a basic framework, but feel free to get creative and build a bowl that reflects your personal preferences.

Ingredients:

• Chicken

• Spices for Chicken: 

  • Dried Oregano

• Cucumber

• Red Onion 

• Crumbled Feta Cheese

• Kalamata Olives

• Tzatziki Sauce (my high-protein recipe)

• Pita Bread

Instructions:

1. Cook your protein of choice: This bowl calls for Chicken, but use what you want with the seasoning list

2. Assemble the Bowl: Divide the cooked rice, lettuce, and/or spinach into bowls. Top with the diced tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, crumbled feta cheese, Kalamata olives, and chicken. 

3. Dress it Up: Drizzle your favorite sauce, such as a high-protein Tzatziki Sauce (check out my recipe) or hummus.
