INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (grilled)
0.75 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Mixed Roasted Vegetables
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the vegetables.
Chop red bell pepper, zucchini, and, if desired, halve the cherry tomatoes. Toss them with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Grill the chicken breast until fully cooked and lightly charred on the outside. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, roasted vegetables, and sliced grilled chicken.
Drizzle with extra lemon juice and a dash more olive oil if desired, then gently toss all ingredients together. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Serve warm or chilled as a satisfying lunch.
