Instructions
 

  • Rinse the quinoa under cold water to remove any bitterness.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the quinoa and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the quinoa is fluffy and liquid is absorbed.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chopped kale, diced bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and chickpeas.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to create a dressing.
  • Once the quinoa is cooked, allow it to cool slightly before adding it to the vegetable mixture.
  • Drizzle the dressing over the quinoa and vegetables, and toss to combine.
  • If desired, sprinkle with feta cheese and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Feel free to customize the vegetables based on your preference or what you have on hand.
