minutesWhenever I return back to Texas from Michigan – I always find myself craving Greek food! We have a ton of authentic, delicious Greek restaurants in the Metro-Detroit area, but that’s not the case here in Austin – so I decided to take matters into my own hands, and it turned out to be delicious! This Greek Power Bowl recipe is all of the things – for many reasons. It’s super quick, easy to make, healthy, protein-packed and super flavorful. Give this a shot one night this week & save the leftovers for lunch!

4 cups prepared orzo pasta
