COME. ON. With these guys. I couldn’t love them more. After making them, I had to run one of my boys to Scouts, and I actually brought a few with me to share with the other moms, because I knew how much they loved them. They are SO tasty, so easy and SO, SO, SO healthy! You can’t beat that winning combination.
I have always enjoyed Mediterranean Flavors – the saltiness of Kalamata olives, the tang from Feta cheese. These are simply delicious and are a great way to use leftover chicken. Oregano has always been a go to spice of mine – especially for my Italian dishes, but did you know that oregano also plays a big role in the Mediterranean flavors?
A little food trivia for you….
All of these wonderful flavors combined with the fact that each cup is 80 calories! Oh, COME ON already. It’s silly not to make these.
