Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Toss the chickpeas with olive oil, salt and pepper, and dried Italian seasoning. Arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet and cook in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  2. Prepare the dressing. Combine all dressing ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. Cover and chill until ready to use. The dressing tastes better after chilling for several hours.
  3. To prepare the chicken, stir together the oil, oregano, basil, salt and pepper, and garlic powder. Brush this mixture on both sides of the chicken. Grill over medium heat for 5-8 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Let the chicken rest for a couple of minutes before dicing it.
  4. Stir together all cucumber salad ingredients in one bowl. In a second bowl, stir together the tomato salad ingredients.
  5. Assemble the bowls by placing quinoa on the bottom. Top with diced chicken, cucumber salad, tomato salad, roasted chickpeas, and crumbled feta cheese. Drizzle with the tzatziki dressing. Serve immediately.
