3-4cupbaby kaleremove any large stems
Dressing:
6tablespoonolive oil
1teaspoononion powder
½tablespoonmustardregular or Dijon
½a lime squeezed
Salt/pepper to taste
Instructions
Prepare your quinoa according to directions on your package (mine was 1 cup dry to 2 cups water, brought to a boil and covered and left to simmer for 18 minutes)
While quinoa is cooking add your chopped broccoli, onion, pepper to a skillet pan (sprayed with non-stick spray first) and let cook on medium to high heat for about 12 minutes stirring frequently, then add your kale to the sauté pan with veggies for 1-2 minutes stirring until kale is wilted down?
Prepare dressing by adding olive oil, onion powder, mustard, lime juice, salt and pepper to a bowl and whisking it together, set aside
Once quinoa and veggies are cooked, serve separated like picture above or toss everything in a large mixing bowl and stir in the dressing!
Serve 2 large meals sizes or 4 small side dishes
Notes
I used a very light and mild dressing on here so if you are used to more flavor than this feel free to add a little more onion powder as well as maybe a chili or cumin powdered spice as well! It's completely optional but if you aren't used to natural flavors then this might be something you want to do!
