Ingredients

• 1 cup Quinoa
• 2 cups Water
• 1 cup Chicken breast, grilled and diced
• 1 cup Black beans, cooked
• 1 cup Broccoli florets

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold water using a fine mesh strainer.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the quinoa, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy.

Step 3

While the quinoa is cooking, steam the broccoli florets for about 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp. Alternatively, you can sauté them in a pan with a bit of olive oil.

Step 4

In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, grilled chicken breast, black beans, steamed broccoli, and halved cherry tomatoes.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and paprika to create the dressing.

Step 6

Pour the dressing over the quinoa mixture and toss everything together until well combined.

Step 7

Gently fold in the diced avocado.

Step 8

Divide the mixture into two serving bowls and sprinkle each bowl with a tablespoon of pumpkin seeds.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Soy-Free Healthy Protein Power Bowl!
