This is a repeat recipe, but it’s what I made for tonight’s dinner and cannot wait to sink my teeth in! 👌🏼
I love this meal because you can cook the chicken ahead of time (i make mine with a little chicken broth, salt, pepper, garlic powder, basil and oregano for great flavor) or in the crock pot, shred it, then prepare the rest later. I like best it when it’s all served cold and sits for a little while to let the dressing set in🙌🏼
Greek salad stuffed pita with chicken and hummus!!!
This was DELICIOUS and so easy to make! It will definitely be one of our regular meals from now on! 👌🏼
*The only modification I made was that I shredded my chicken and cooked it with a little salt, pepper, and garlic powder for flavor (I make a huge batch of chicken like this in the crock pot once a week and use it as a base for different meals and it worked perfectly for this!)
