GREEK CHICKEN BOWLS that will make your taste buds explode and your belly very happy.
I made a version of this for my meal prep clients a few weeks ago, and they raved over it! So here ya go SQRLS. Make this one at home! It’s so dang easy.
THE KEY: Heavily season everything.
This also requires barely any cooking. The chopping and prepping is what takes longest. So if you’re feeling nervous to get in the kitchen, this one is a great place to start!
