Pause, dashboard, menu → quit.
Or with instant on pause, (dashboard - optional), power off console.
I love not having to wait for the game to load, this new approach the Xbox One allows is great in my opinion. It’s quirky occasionally and I need to manually restart the game, but that’s worth it for being able to jump in and out so easily.
Some evenings I’ll get home, watch some Hulu Plus, play some FH2, watch some Netflix, play FH2, etc. At no point do I have to wait ages for things to load.
That said, as mentioned you can quit any application any time by pulling up the menu (three horizontal lines on your remote) and selecting to quit the application. You can also disable the instant on thing on the Xbox one, forcing a cold boot each time should force the game to load cold too.

I fast travel to the Horizon Festival, press the start button to go into the pause menu, ensure there is no saving icon, press the dashboard button, highlight the Forza Horizon 2 tile, press start and choose ‘quit’.
I actually like it picking up exactly where I left off as though I never actually quit. It’s so fast and convenient with no down-side.

I do an action to make the save / sync circular icon appear (change cars, fast travel, enter then leave a hub). Hit big X button in center of control, press the menu button, then scroll down to quit. I always wait for the icon to disappear and then a few seconds to make sure my saves don’t get corrupted. Been doing that since FM5. In FM5 I would eventually have sound issues if I didn’t quit this and other apps like this or hold down the power button on the console ever so often to shut it down. Seems like XBox 1 has or had memory issues. Like any computer, phone, tablet… Start running low on memory and there will be issues.
