Chicken and Hummus Bistro Box

Pack this Mediterranean bistro box for a quick and healthy lunch on the go. Make it with hummus, leftover grilled chicken, and veggies or any of your favorite Mediterranean foods.

Easy Bistro Box Idea

While I’ve got to applaud a certain well-known coffee house chain for coming out with healthier boxed lunches (or bistro boxes), I can’t exactly cheer for that hefty price tag on a box that is essentially the size of a snack. I get it, we’re paying for convenience, but still! I’d much rather plan ahead and make bistro boxes at home.

It’s so easy to prep these ahead on a Sunday and have a variety of bistro boxes ready for snacks or lunches throughout the week. If you need more inspiration coming up with healthy lunches for you and the kids throughout the week, try MOMables meal plans. I’ll send you new lunches every week, with meal prep tips & everything you need to make packing lunches a breeze! Try it for free here. 

How easy is it to pull together this bistro box and others? Just watch!

For this Chicken and Hummus Bistro Box you’ll notice the naan or pita bread included. In the boxed version, you get one small naan bread “pita” cut in half. Which confuses me. Is it for dipping in the hummus? Is it for making tiny chicken wraps? Or how are you supposed to eat the chicken? So I included a mini pocket pita in mine, to open up the options. Dip or stuff. Your call, it’s delicious either way.

If you want to mix it up a bit with the flavors, try this recipe for Homemade Greek Hummus. The bold flavor of the freshly made hummus takes this bistro box to the next level.

For a gluten-free option, simply swap the pita bread for these easy gluten-free wraps.

Make It a Meal!

Double or triple the pitas and chicken, add in a few more veggies (maybe even some different ones, like sticks of carrot, kohlrabi, or beet!) and a little more hummus. Go ahead and include some fruit as well, for a sweet treat.

Simple tip: The pitas will last longer in the fridge, in case you can’t use them all right away. If they feel a little stiff, you can microwave them for 30 seconds with a mug of water or moist paper towel to soften.
