Let's Cook

  1. Step 1.

    Spoon 50 g lemon-herb yogurt into the bottom of a large jar or container, spreading it evenly to create a base layer.

  2. Step 2.

    Layer 80 g chickpeas, 80 g cucumber, and 80 g tomato on top of the yogurt, keeping each ingredient in distinct layers for visual appeal.

  3. Step 3.

    Add 130 g cooked rice over the vegetables, then place 140 g prepared chicken on top of the rice.

  4. Step 4.

    Finish with 40 g spinach, 20 g feta, and a sprinkle of lemon, oregano, and parsley as the final layers.

  5. Step 5.

    Seal the jar and refrigerate until ready to eat; this allows flavors to meld and keeps the ingredients fresh for up to 3 days.

  6. Step 6.

    When ready to eat, tip the contents into a bowl and toss thoroughly to combine all layers before serving.
