LEMON CHICKEN PITA

This is a quick & easy weeknight dinner idea


What you will need
1 chicken breast
pita bread
tzatziki sauce (Trader Joe's)
shredded lettuce (bought shredded)
tomatoes diced
onion diced

Marinade
1 large lemon
olive oil
salt
lemon pepper
Mrs. Dash salt free chicken seasoning

Now what
preheat oven 350 degrees
squeeze all of lemon juice into pyrex baking dish, add olive oil approx 1/4 cup, place chicken in dish and coat both sides in juices, next sprinkle generous amount of lemon pepper on top, 3 dashes of salt, & Mrs. Dash.  Let marinade in fridge for 10 minutes (will have a strong lemon flavor which will be balanced out once everything is added to the pita.)

Once ready to bake place in oven for 20 minutes.  In the meantime prepare the pita toppings, dice tomatoes & onions etc...

Slice chicken into thin strips, zap pita bread in microwave for 30 seconds, add all the toppings, & serve!!

MARK YOUR CALENDARS

I'm a huge fan of Missoni but their pieces are a bit high for my budget.  So I am really excited about their collaboration with Target, get ready to rumble on September 13th because I am guessing people will be lined up! There will be over 400 pieces from clothing, to bedding, home decor, & possibly a beach cruiser like the one pictured below!

PB UPDATE

Well we survived our Pure Barre class last Friday.  It is such an amazing workout, my muscles were on fire... I think I mouthed OMG to Katie 10 times!  This workout will definitely lift your booty, tone your thighs, strengthen your abs, & turn you into a lean lady!  I bought a month unlimited membership so more to come...
FYI come prepared in yoga pants (no shorts) and socks!

 Here are the tools you use in class

They have super cute clothes & accessories, we bought these Pure Vida bracelets after class that we call our BFF bracelet's
(Kelli this includes you since you have one)!
