    Great for lunch or dinner, and also packed with protein (20 grams!), not to mention tons of wonderful flavors. A few other favorite quinoa obsessions are Avocado Quinoa and Chickpea Salad, Black Bean Quinoa and Mango Salad and Quinoa Huevos Rancheros Bowl.,To make the grilled chicken extra flavorful, I like to marinate it overnight with lemon juice, garlic and fresh herbs like rosemary or oregano. This is great to bring to a potluck, to enjoy as a light meal. You can make the chicken and quinoa ahead if you wish, and mix everything together when youre ready to eat.,Protein Egg and Quinoa Salad Jars,Spinach and Quinoa Salad with Grapefruit and Avocado,Quinoa Fiesta Enchilada Bake,Mediterranean Quinoa Salad,Instant Pot Chipotle Chicken Bowls with Cilantro Lime Quinoa
