Ingredients
  

  • 4 oz Genoa beef salami Sliced
  • 4 oz Oven-roasted chicken breast Sliced into strips
  • 1/2 cup Cucumber slices Washed and sliced
  • 1/2 cup Red and orange bell pepper strips Seeded and sliced
  • 1/2 cup Red and yellow cherry tomatoes Washed, left whole or halved
  • 1/4 cup Marinated artichoke hearts Drained slightly
  • 1/4 cup Green and Kalamata olives Pitted
  • 2 oz Fresh mozzarella balls Drained
  • 2 tbsp Crumbled feta cheese For sprinkling
  • 1/4 cup Tzatziki dip Store-bought or homemade
  • 2 tbsp Greek dressing For drizzling over veggies
  • 1/2 cup Red grapes Washed on the stem
  • 1 cup Pita chips Keep separate until serving
  • 2 whole Mini pita bread Keep separate until serving

Instructions
 

  • Wash and dry the cucumber, bell peppers, tomatoes, and red grapes. Cut the cucumber into slices, the bell peppers into strips, and halve the cherry tomatoes if desired.
  • Slice the oven-roasted chicken breast into bite-sized strips or cubes.
  • Take two large bento-style meal prep containers. Divide the 4 oz of Genoa beef salami and 4 oz of chicken breast evenly into the main compartments of each container.
  • Pour the 1/4 cup tzatziki dip and 2 tbsp Greek dressing into small, lidded sauce containers to prevent the other ingredients from getting soggy. Place one in each bento.
  • Arrange the prepared vegetables (1/2 cup cucumber, 1/2 cup bell peppers, 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes), 1/4 cup marinated artichoke hearts, 1/4 cup mixed olives, and 1/2 cup red grapes in the remaining sections.
  • Tuck the 2 oz of fresh mozzarella balls into the vegetable sections and sprinkle the 2 tbsp of crumbled feta cheese over the tomatoes and cucumbers.
  • Pack the 1 cup of pita chips and 2 mini pita breads in separate dry bags or containers to keep them crisp until serving.
