Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups of cooked quinoa (or brown rice or farro for a different texture)
  • 2 chicken breasts (boneless, skinless; swap for tofu for a vegetarian option)
  • 1/4 cup of honey (local, raw honey for enhanced flavor)
  • 1/4 cup of Dijon mustard (or whole grain mustard for a crunch)
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup of cherry tomatoes (halved; substitute with diced bell peppers)
  • 1 cup of spinach (fresh; kale can be a heartier alternative)
  • 1 avocado (sliced, optional; provides healthy fats)
  • 1/4 cup of feta cheese (crumbled; omit for a dairy-free option)

  • Instructions

  • Prepare the quinoa by rinsing 1 cup under cold water and cooking it with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt for about 15 minutes.
  • Marinate the chicken by whisking together honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and pepper, then coat the chicken breasts and let sit for at least 10 minutes.
  • Cook the marinated chicken in a skillet over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, halved cherry tomatoes, and spinach, tossing to blend.
  • Assemble the bowl by dividing the quinoa and veggie mix into bowls, topping with sliced chicken, avocado, and crumbled feta cheese.
