KALE AND QUINOA SALAD WITH PLUMS AND HERBS
I was so taken with the spicy, sweet and savory mix of flavors in the soba salad with eggplant and pluots that I made a few weeks ago that I decided to use the same formula for a kale and quinoa salad. The kale is the main ingredient here, with quinoa adding texture and bulk.

Steps:
- Rinse the quinoa and cook in a pot of rapidly boiling, generously salted water for 15 minutes. Drain, return to pot, place a towel across the top and replace the lid. Let sit for 15 minutes. Transfer to a sheet pan lined with paper towels and allow to cool completely.
- To cut the kale, stem, wash and spin dry the leaves, then stack several at a time and cut crosswise into thin slivers. Toss in a large bowl with the quinoa, chile, herbs, and half the plums.
- Whisk together the vinegar, lime zest and juice, salt to taste, garlic and sunflower or grapeseed oil. Toss with the salad. Garnish with the remaining plums and serve.

QUINOA, BUTTERNUT SQUASH, AND KALE SALAD
This is a go-to type of recipe I use a lot. The seasonings are pretty great and can be used for sweet potato fries and a fish marinade too. You can vary this recipe by adding your favorite grain, or bean! You can also use whichever herb you enjoy.
