Food discoveries.

[Catholic_Lady]

After moving back home to Texas about five years ago, I realized that summers are much too hot for indoor cooking, and usually hot meals, so I took to more grilling, and more cold foods. I combined the both by putting together good flatbread sammiches: chilled, grilled chicken, spinach and basil leaves, a little red onion, gouda or feta or sharp cheddar cheese, tomatoes and cucumbers sliced thin, all on naan bread smeared with homemade tzatziki. Not so much a discovery as it is a reworking of a Greek meal, but it sure is good, light, and good for you.

Right now I'm prepping an omelet by dicing mushrooms, green pepper, tomatoes, onions, cheese, and a little leftover chicken I've got.

This Greek marinade for chicken is amazing, and goes great with tzeziki sauce and is healthy.

Combine:

-2 teaspoons minced garlic
-Juice of 1 lemon (2-3 Tablespoons)
-2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
-2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
-2 heaping Tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
-1 Tablespoon dried oregano
-Salt and pepper to taste

Let up to 2lbs Chicken marinade in this mix for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours before tossing on the grill.
