FAQs
Can I freeze these bowls?
Yes but only the chicken and rice — cool completely, pack into airtight containers, freeze. Thaw in fridge overnight and enjoy cold or reheat gently.
Is this recipe gluten free?
Yes — the ingredients are naturally gluten free (double-check the stock, spice blends or dressings you use).
How spicy is the feta dressing?
It’s a punchy but balanced heat. If you prefer milder, reduce the chilli or mix in more yoghurt.
