Quinoa & Kale Power Bowl

Instructions

1. Step 1: Rinse the quinoa under cold water until the water runs clear to remove any bitterness.
2. Step 2: Combine the quinoa, water, and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy.
3. Step 3: While the quinoa is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped kale and sauté until wilted, about 5 minutes.
4. Step 4: In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, lemon juice, olive oil, honey, and Dijon mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste to make the dressing.
5. Step 5: In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, sautéed kale, cherry tomatoes, chickpeas, and crumbled feta cheese.
6. Step 6: Drizzle the citrusy dressing over the quinoa mixture and toss gently to combine all the ingredients.
7. Step 7: Top the power bowl with sliced almonds and avocado just before serving to maintain their texture.
8. Step 8: Serve the quinoa and kale power bowl warm or at room temperature, adjusting seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
