Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup cooked long-grain brown rice
  • 1/4 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup arugula
  • 1/3 cup grape tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cucumber, peeled and diced
  • 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1/8 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/8 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp low-fat hummus (optional garnish - if total fat is not under 5 grams it could create a crossover)
  • 2 tbsp 0% Greek yogurt
  • 1 lemon
  • 1/4 tsp Greek seasoning (optional)
  • 1 tbsp reduced-fat feta cheese (optional garnish - if total fat is not under 5 grams it could create a crossover)

  2. Top with chicken.
  3. Garnish with a large dollop of Greek yogurt and a small amount of feta cheese and hummus as a garnish, if using.
