Prep
- Slow cook chicken - This makes enough for tomorrow’s meal. Dice tomatoes. Mix together Italian seasonings, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Cover chicken in seasonings and transfer to slow cooker and cover with tomatoes and balsamic vinegar. Cook on low for 7 to 9 hours. Once done, shred chicken, remove bones and skin, and let it sit in the liquid for at least 15 minutes. It’ll get a lot more flavor that way. (Can be done up to 1 day ahead)

Used 1Tbsp of each spice, and topped with a delicious harissa in addition to cilantro. My husband added the yogurt (the rest of my family is dairy-free) too. The meal was fine-ish on its own but adding the toppings makes this one worth doing again.

The wraps were great. We used naan and I subbed Greek yogurt for the mayo. The side salad was okay. My husband is a picky about dressings, so he used Italian dressing instead.
We did some substantial changes which we loved: - modified the tomato cucumber salad to include feta, chick peas, and salami - subbed homemade hummus for storebought baba ganoush - subbed tzatziki for the balsamic mayo - put the hummus in the pitas - put the tomato cucumber salad in the pitas
The balsamic mayo and the delicious naan that I used made this a winner in my book. Very tasty, while feeling relatively light and healthy!
