Kale and Quinoa Salad
Oct 07, 2016
This is one of my favorite recipes because it's easy, delicious and packed with nutrients! I use the tricolor blend of quinoa to get as much variety as possible, and also pink salt because it has 84 minerals/trace elements.

Servings: 4-6
Ingredients to support Recovery:
- 3 cups uncooked quinoa, rinsed
- 2-3 cups kale, finely chopped (1 large bunch curly kale)
- 2 lemons, juiced
- 3 cloves garlic, pressed
- 1 tablespoon EVOO
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt (pink salt is one of the highest mineral salts!)
- 1-3 squirts Recovery Beverage Booster
- Use either a rice cooker or stovetop to cook quinoa. In a rice cooker, add 6 cups water to 3 cups quinoa, stir, cover, and once cooker turns off, it is done. On stove, place 3 cups quinoa and 6 cups water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce to simmer, cover and cook until all water is absorbed; about 15 minutes.
- While quinoa is cooking, wash and remove stems from kale (I simply pull the stem apart from the leaves), then finely chop in a food processor or by hand. Juice the lemons.
- Once quinoa is cooked, move it into a large bowl and add cumin, salt, garlic, lemon juice, EVOO, and Beverage Booster. Add kale last. Then stir it all well.
- Serve immediately, or great served cold! Also works well as an easy grab-n-go for lunches or quick snacks.

This is sooo yummy! I eat on the go a lot, and this packs tons of good energy nutrients into something easy to eat. I love that it’s technically grain free too! …and a bonus: these ingredients help the body better handle sad or negative emotions.
