COPYCAT FIRST WATCH® QUINOA POWER BOWL
This is a copycat recipe of First Watch®'s Quinoa Power Bowl. I think you are really going to enjoy this protein-packed quinoa mixed with grilled chicken, lemon, feta, roasted tomatoes, and shredded carrots. The recipe is quite simple, and the dish is a complete meal all-in-one, so it takes the guesswork out of what side dishes to prepare to ensure a balanced meal of protein, whole grains, and fresh veggies.

Steps:
- Combine chicken stock and quinoa in a large pot over high heat; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
- Whisk lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, pepper, and salt in a small bowl to make lemon dressing.
- Stir lemon dressing, chicken, water, diced tomatoes, feta cheese, half-and-half, carrots, pesto sauce, and oregano into the cooked quinoa. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until thick and creamy, about 15 minutes. Spoon into individual bowls.

COPYCAT FIRST WATCH QUINOA POWER BOWL
I think you are really going to enjoy this protein-packed quinoa mixed with grilled chicken, lemon, feta, roasted tomatoes and shredded carrots. I, like many people, have been trying to eat healthier. Part of that has been substituting refined wheat flour with more whole grains like quinoa. I often brunch at First Watch, and decided to try one of their Quinoa Power Bowls, instead of going for the pancakes. I was pleasantly surprised at how fresh, hearty and satisfying the dish was, and the boost of energy stayed with me for hours without leaving me sluggish, as typical with sugar-laden pancakes. So, I decided to try to make this new dish a staple in my diet. The recipe is quite simple, and the dish is a complete meal all-in-one, so it takes the guess work out of what side dishes to prepare to ensure a balanced meal of protein, whole grains and fresh veggies.

Steps:
- Rinse quinoa thoroughly to remove any residue. Combine quinoa and chicken broth in a large pot over high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5 minutes.
- While the quinoa is cooking, you can prepare the lemon dressing. Zest and juice a lemon into a small bowl. Add olive oil, salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Set aside.
- Thaw frozen chicken strips in the microwave (do not overcook) and finely dice. Set aside.
- Once the quinoa is cooked, add lemon dressing, chicken, feta cheese, diced tomatoes, carrots, half-and-half and water. Cook over medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until thick and creamy.
- Spoon into individual bowls or serving dish, and serve immediately. Now, how easy was that? Enjoy!
