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.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
