Mediterranean Bowl Recipe
Have you ever had a Burrito Bowl at Chipotle? This is my Mediterranean version, and it's an easy dinner because everyone makes their own just the way they like it. My daughter suggests wrapping it all in a pita for a Mediterranean version of Subway. Either way, it's a delicious dinner and festive to serve for a party!
