Quinoa, Kale, and Sweet Potato Salad
A recent gathering of college friends at a Texas retreat center (Mo Ranch, near Hunt) needed a vegan option for dinner, so I created this salad, which was a hit.
In a large serving bowl, toss together:
2 cups quinoa (or other grain such as rice, barley, etc.) cooked per package directions
1 bunch of fresh kale, (stems discarded) chopped
3 sweet potatoes, microwaved for 10 minutes, then peeled and chopped
1 box of cherry tomatoes, quartered
1 jar of bottled dressing (I used Annie's Lemon Garlic)*
* or see the lemon garlic dressing recipe posted 2/5/12 on this blog
Makes enough for 6 main servings or 15 side salad servings.
