Why You'll Love These Sheet Pan Greek Chicken Grain Bowls

These delicious grain bowls bowls have so much going for them. That's why they're a regular on our menu rotation. They're:

Ingredient Substitutions and Recipe Variations

  • This recipe is great for using leftover quinoa. Also feel free to use any other grain you like, such as farro or brown rice.
  • You can use fresh baby spinach or other leafy greens instead of roasted kale.
  • Leave off the chicken for a vegetarian version.
  • These bowls are super flexible and customizable to what you prefer or have on hand. Get as creative as you'd like with your toppings!

Can These Bowl Be Made In Advance?

You can definitely make these bowls even easier to make by cooking the quinoa, chicken, and veggies and prepping the tzatziki sauce ahead of time so that they're super easy to throw together when you're ready to eat. I don't recommend slicing the cucumber or tomatoes until it's time to serve, so that they don't get soggy.

    This looks amazing! Do you think these could be assembled for a couple days in advance and just leave the toppings off until ready to serve? I love to make things ahead of time so I can just grab them from the fridge when i have a crazy day!
