Greek Chicken Salad
Greek Chicken Salad – grilled chicken, lemon, Greek yogurt, basil, dill, and parsley. Loaded in a pita. Makes for the perfect lunch!

Can you meal prep this Greek chicken salad?
Yes! You can. But the key to this recipe is to make sure that the vegetables are as dry as possible. That way the Greek yogurt dressing mixture doesn’t get watery.
Another idea is: keep the yogurt mixture separate until you want to serve it.
Recipe modifications
You could put this over lettuce for a gluten free version.
Or add some olives if that is your thing.
Peppadew peppers would be a great addition too. If you’ve never had them – I would definitely recommend trying them. Panera puts them on their Mediterranean sandwiches! You can get them in the salad bar/olive bar section of the grocery store. Or in a jar near the pickle aisle.
You could also add some diced bell peppers to the chicken salad.

Or these turkey burgers. Make the burgers on a Sunday and then have them to reheat in the fridge all week.

- 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Salad:

- 1 green onion bunch chopped
- 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbles
Instructions
To make the marinade:
- Whisk together all marinade ingredients in a small bowl and pour over chicken breast and let marinade for 2 or more hours. The longer the better.
To make the dressing:
- Make dressing in a small bowl combining all of the dressing ingredients and mix thoroughly. Transfer to the bottom of a large bowl.
To make the salad:
- Grill Chicken and cut into small bite size cubes and transfer to large bowl with the dressing.
- Make sure to blot the cucumber dry as much as possible. You do not want the cucumber juicy as it will water down the salad.

- Serve immediately with pita bread, crackers, or over greens.
