Notes
*Cook the chicken, quinoa, and lentils in advance for quick assembly.
*Use already cooked lentils you can purchase in the refrigerated section of many grocery stores.
*Choose your favorite flavor of Sabra Hummus. Many of the flavors compliment this dish well, or go with the original.
*Instead of making a separate dressing, you could reserve a cup of marinade before you add the chicken, and save it to use as the dressing. Just be sure to taste it to make sure you do not need to adjust the seasonings at all.
