This was very easy to make! Since I'm cooking for 1 I froze the remainder in single serving portions. In each container I put one pita with cheese, and 2 plastic bags (one with the meat, and the other with the chopped veggies). Now it's ready as a grab and go lunch!

Delicious!

These were excellent! The fresh basil and sun-dried tomatoes really added a lot of flavor. I kept the chicken/vinaigrette and the veggies separate so they wouldn't get soggy. This will make great leftovers for lunch the next day. I would definitely make these again for a quick, easy dinner.

These are good. I think it could use a little minced red onion next time.

The dressing is the reason I kept this recipe and I'm glad it really is the star. I could imagine putting it to a ton of uses. I added a pinch of Salt but otherwise just as written.

Always tasty! I use romano instead of asiago, just personal preference, and sometimes I put these in wraps instead of pitas. Very filling.
