Steps

1For the Greek-Seasoned Chicken
2Cook chicken
3Preheat oven to 400º F. Combine all herbs, spices, and salt in a small bowl. Brush both sides of chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle generously with herb mixture. Bake until the meat thermometer reads 160º F, about 25-28 minutes for pretty thick breasts. Don't overcook! Remove from oven and set aside to fully cool.
4For the Tzatziki (See Below for Whole30 Tzatziki)
5grate cucumber
6Place grated cucumber (for tzatziki) on a paper towel and gather edges together. Gently squeeze the bundle to get rid of as much liquid as possible, then place on top of a sieve or colander while you prep the remaining items to allow the cucumber to continue to drain.
7Mix tzatziki
8When cucumber has totally drained, stir together all tzatziki ingredients. Season with additional salt, to taste.
9For the Cauliflower Tabbouleh
10Mix tabbouleh
11Combine all ingredients and season with additional salt, to taste.
12To Assemble the Bowls
13Assemble bowls
14Slice chicken breasts into about ½" slices against the grain. Divide slices equally among 5 meal prep containers. Divide tabbouleh and tzatziki equally among meal prep containers, as well. Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons hummus or baba ganoush into each container, to taste, and top with about 5 kalamata olives.
