Meat & Protein
- 2 cups rotisserie chicken meat pulled and shredded
Produce
- 4 cups mixed greens or baby spinach
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- 1 avocado sliced
- 1 cucumber sliced
Pantry & Canned Goods
- 4 tbsp store-bought dressing of choice green goddess, lemon vinaigrette, or balsamic all work great
- 2 pouches pre-cooked brown rice or white rice (8.5 oz each) Ben's Original or similar
Microwave the rice pouches according to package directions — usually 90 seconds. Divide between four bowls.
Pull the rotisserie chicken meat off the bone and shred or slice it. Pile it on top of the rice.
Add a handful of greens, cherry tomatoes, avocado, and cucumber to each bowl.
Drizzle with your dressing of choice and serve immediately.
The rice pouch is the move here — no cooking, no waiting, just 90 seconds in the microwave. Keep a few in the pantry at all times.
Dressing makes or breaks this bowl. Green Goddess, a good lemon vinaigrette, or even a drizzle of tahini with lemon juice are all excellent. Don't use the sad bottle in the back of your fridge.
Leftovers keep well for 2 days — store the dressing separately so the greens don't wilt.
