Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 cup quinoa *see notes
- 6 cups kale or arugula
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp oregano
- ½ cup red onion
- 2 cup peaches about 2 peaches
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 avocado
- ¼ cup feta *see notes
- ¼ cup balsamic reduction * I use store bought
- 1 tbsp chopped cilantro for garnish and brightness
Instructions
- Cook quinoa. While quinoa is cooking, stem/chop kale. Add kale to bowl. Chop the peaches, onions, avocado, cilantro, feta and set to the side. Once quinoa is finished, let it cool a bit. Stir a lot so the heat leaves quickly and then add to chopped kale.
- In a small bowl mix seasoning and add that to the quinoa and kale. Mix well. Then assemble all the other ingredients into the bowl (peaches, onions, avocado, feta). Drizzle the olive oil over the salad. Gently mix the salad well. Generously drizzle the balsamic glaze, over the salad. Add garnish last. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
*1 cup uncooked quinoa. You will have about 2 cups cooked and it can all be added to the salad.
*Goat cheese or vegan cheese will also work.
