Ingredients
- 1 cup orzo
- 2 cups shredded chicken
- 1 red onion diced
- 4 cups spinach
- 1 can chickpeas rinsed and drained, or make own chickpeas with an Instant Pot
- 2 cups peas
- 1/2 cup Asiago cheese
- Lemon Basil Vinaigrette or dressing of your choice
Instructions
- In a pot, cook the orzo as directed on the packaging.
- While the orzo is cooking, shred the chicken, dice the onion, cut up the spinach. Make your dressing if you’re making your own, I recommend this lemon basil vinaigrette.
- When the orzo is done, combine the orzo with the chicken, onion, spinach, chickpeas, and peas. Sprinkle in some asiago cheese.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Notes
- I pack my dressing on the side so I can decide how much I feel like putting in that day.For more flavour, you can cook your orzo in chicken or vegetable broth instead of water.
- I prefer taking my orzo meal prep 10-20 minutes before I’m ready to eat so it’s chilled but not too cold.
- Calories do not include the dressing
