Food blogger Amy James gave me the recipe for this healthy and tasty dish that you can make with Pan Roasted Chicken leftovers. She created a week-long meal plan based on the roasted chicken, Lemon Herb Potatoes, and Oven-Roasted Farmers’ Market Vegetables. In addition to this burrito bowl she suggests preparing Rosemary, Feta and Potato Grilled Pizza, Chicken and Vegetable Fried Rice and a Cobb Salad.
