tomato pesto soup with parmesan toast and kale quinoa salad

Kale Quinoa Salad

Course Salad
Cuisine Mediterranean

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bunch kale, stemmed and cut into 1/2 inch ribbons
  • olive oil
  • kosher salt
  • 1 cup quinoa, cooked
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 4 ounces white cheddar, grated or cut into tiny cubes
  • 1 cup pecans, toasted and chopped
  • balsamic vinegar, I like to use a flavored option like blueberry or strawberry

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, massage the kale with a liberal drizzle of olive oil and salt. It should turn from matte to glossy and decrease quite a bit in volume. Add the cooked quinoa, blueberries, white cheddar, and pecans. Toss and dress to taste with additional olive oil, salt, pepper, and a very nice, good-quality balsamic.
