Mediterranean Quinoa Chicken Bowls

Ingredients

  • Mediterranean Quinoa Chicken Bowls
  • 3 large chicken breasts cooked in chicken broth in slow cooker and shredded
  • One box of Mediterranean uncooked quinoa
  • 1 cup of chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup chopped cucumber
  • 1/2 cup chopped black olives from Olives of Spain
  • 1/2 can of Rotel
  • Feta Cheese for topping
  • Greek yogurt for topping if desired

Instructions

  • Start by cooking your chicken. I placed 3 large chicken breasts in the crockpot with chicken broth and some lemon, salt and pepper for seasoning and let cook for 8 hours. Then shredded.
  • Purchase one box of Mediterranean quinoa from the grocery store and cook according to directions. I substituted 1 cup of chicken broth in the recipe instead of water--for extra flavor.
  • Once quinoa is cooked, add in Rotel, cucumber, and olives--all chopped. Let cook a few more minutes in the pan the quinoa was in to warm up veggies.
  • Once ready, place quinoa and veggie mix in bowl, top with shredded chicken, then feta cheese and a little greek yogurt if desired.
