Happy New year everyone  It’s Jana from Double the Deliciousness. I love the fresh start that a new year brings. It’s a great time to reflect and see what improvements you can make in your life. One of my fresh starts/goals that I try to achieve every year is to eat healthier and exercise regularly. I always start off doing really well because I think my body is in a state of sugar/junk overdose and my body really likes the idea of vegetables & good for you food!

And that is just what this sandwich is! Chuck full of veggies and good for you, this healthy Greek chicken pita sandwich is sure to wow. Just what my body is craving at this point. And to make it even better, this one is so quick and easy and tastes as good as any full fat recipe out there!
