Calories: 478kcal
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup brown rice 70 g- (I always use the frozen brown rice from Trader Joe's)
- 75 g arugula favorite bagged arugula is Trader Joe's
- 100 g grilled Greek Chicken
- 100 g Greek Salsa
- 30 g tzatziki or use Trader Joe's tzatziki or avocado tzatziki!
- 40 g hummus I used Hope brand jalapeno cilantro- only 2.5 fat for 2 tbs so if you want the macros to match, try and find one similar! The Trader Joe's eggplant hummus is great for only 2 fat.
- 25 g easy pickled red onion
- 25 g quick pickled cabbage Just pour some of the same pickling juice from the red onions over sliced purple cabbage for about an hour. Or however minutes you have! Even a litle helps.
- 14 g of fat-free feta Trader Joe's sells one!
- Extra mint
- Squeeze of lemon
Instructions
- Toss brown rice and arugula in a large bowl.
- Top with leftover grilled Greek Chicken, Greek Salsa, tzatziki, hummus, pickled onion and cabbage.
- Add extra feta, mint, and a squeeze of lemon and close your eyes and dream that you're at Cava.
Notes
- This is the perfect meal to make with your Greek leftovers. I love to make a big batch of the Greek chicken, Greek salsa, and tzatziki... and use it for pitas one night, and a bowl a night or two later. I've usually got pickled onions already in my fridge so it's easy to pour some of the liquid over my cabbage and let it sit while I prep anything else.
