Greek Healthy Chicken Meal Prep Recipe
This Greek Healthy Chicken Meal Prep Recipe is a delicious healthy meal prep recipe which is perfect for weekday lunches. I love to make this on a Sunday and then I don’t have to worry about what to prepare for lunch for the next few days.
Start by preparing tzatziki. Coat chicken with a herb mixture and bake in the oven until cooked through but be careful not to overcook. Combine cauliflower rice with cucumber, tomatoes, mint, and parsley to make the tabbouleh. Assemble the lunchboxes by slicing and dividing among 4 boxes. Divide tabbouleh and tzatziki equally among the containers and add hummus or baba ganoush. Top each container with about 5 kalamata olives.
