Chicken Quinoa Mediterranean Bowl

This Chicken Quinoa Mediterranean Bowl has so many of my favorite things: creamy hummus, delicious grilled chicken, feta cheese, and a homemade tzatziki sauce; it tastes almost identical to my favorite Panera mediterranean bowl. It comes together quick and it's SO filling! One of my favorite easy lunch recipes to meal prep!
