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.

QUINOA POWER BOWLS WITH BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND TAHINI SAUCE
One of my go-to meals during the week is a grain bowl filled with vegetables; I especially love it because I can switch up the produce with the seasons. This autumnal version is extra delicious because it has a good balance of sweetness from the butternut squash, tartness from the dried cranberries and a savory nuttiness from the tahini sauce (which I seriously put on everything).

Steps:
- Rinse the quinoa in a fine-mesh sieve under running water, then drain. Transfer to a medium saucepan; add 1 3/4 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat and cook until it browns and smells nutty, about 3 minutes. Add the squash, onion and 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the squash is golden brown and tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
- While the squash cooks, make the tahini sauce: Whisk together the tahini, garlic, lemon juice, honey, 1 1/2 tablespoons water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper, to taste, in a medium bowl until smooth. Set aside.
- Once the squash is golden and tender, add the kale to the skillet and cook, stirring, until the kale is slightly wilted, about 1 minute.
- Transfer the cooked quinoa and vegetables to a large bowl. Stir in the dried cranberries and pecans. Serve warm or cold with the tahini sauce.

Steps:
- Rinse quinoa in a fine mesh strainer and place in a small pot. Add 1 1/2 cups water and bring to a boil. Add 3/4 teaspoon adobo seasoning, lower heat, and simmer until quinoa is tender and water is almost gone, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- While the quinoa is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add sweet potatoes and onion and season with salt and pepper. Add more adobo seasoning if desired. Cook over medium heat until sweet potatoes are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Meanwhile, make dressing: whisk lime juice, coconut milk, water, honey, olive oil, and salt together in a bowl. Set aside.
- Distribute quinoa, sweet potato-onion mixture, black beans, bell peppers, and avocados in 6 bowls. Dress with honey-lime dressing and garnish with cilantro.

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.
