Chopped salads are back with a bang! Not only are they healthy, delicious, nutritious, and hearty, but they can be assembled ahead of time for work lunches or quick dinners.
Our Mediterranean Bean, Kale, and Quinoa Salad is a great combo of fibre, protein, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates – it’s a lot of goodness! Because it can hold up, we recommend mixing a large batch, keeping it in the fridge, and eating it all week long, dressing it just before serving.
Directions
- In large bowl, place kale, quinoa, chickpeas, bean medley, bell peppers, cucumbers, grape tomatoes, red onion, and parsley.
- Toss to distribute everything evenly.
- Add vinaigrette to taste and toss well.
- Serve, topped with feta cheese and Kalamata olives.
