Ingredients
-
½ C Quinoa
-
1 Bunch of Kale (about 4 cups)
-
1 Shallot, diced
-
½ C Pecans
-
½ C dried Blueberries (or substitute with cranberries, apples or pears)
-
¼ C Feta Cheese, crumbled
-
3 Tbsp. Olivia’s Raspberry Dark Balsamic
-
2 Tsp. Dijon Wholegrain Mustard
-
1 Tsp. Honey
-
¼ Tsp. Olivia’s Himalayan Sea Salt
-
¼ Tsp. cracked Black Pepper
Directions
Bring 1½ cups of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Rinse quinoa and add to boiling water. Stir gently and simmer on medium heat for 15 minutes or until quinoa is soft and water has absorbed.
Rinse Kale, remove the stems and tear into bit-sized pieces. Toss in serving bowl and drizzle with 1 Tbsp. of Olivia’s Meyer Lemon Olive Oil. Mix well until Kale is a shiny green.
Place remaining Olivia’s Meyer Lemon Olive Oil, Olivia’s Raspberry Dark Balsamic, mustard and honey in a small container and shake well to combine.
Fluff Quinoa with a fork, and drizzle with half of the dressing and mix while the quinoa is still warm - the quinoa will soak up the dressing. Place quinoa over kale and gently toss. Sprinkle with shallots, pecans, dried blueberries and feta cheese.
Drizzle with remaining dressing and serve immediately.
