SHREDDED COLLARD GREENS WITH WALNUTS AND PICKLED APPLES

Steps:

• Make pickled apples:
• Quarter and core apples, then cut each quarter lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Boil vinegar, water, sugar, salt, and pickling spice in a saucepan, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Add apples and return to a boil. Transfer to a heatproof bowl and cool. Chill, uncovered, until cold, about 1 hour.
• Prepare nuts while apples chill:
• Toast walnuts in oil in a small skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until a shade darker. Cool nuts in oil. Transfer nuts to a cutting board with a slotted spoon, reserving oil. Coarsely chop 1 tablespoon nuts and finely chop remaining nuts.
• Prepare collard greens:
• Halve each collard leaf lengthwise with kitchen shears or a sharp knife, cutting out and discarding center ribs. Stack leaves and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-wide strips. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Just before serving:
• Transfer all nuts and oil from skillet to collards and toss with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Add apple slices, discarding pickling liquid and spices, and toss again.

QUINOA SALAD WITH SHREDDED GREENS & RAISINS

Steps:

• Rinse the quinoa in a sieve under running water until the water runs clear, then cook for 20 mins following pack instructions. Leave to rest for 5 mins. Rinse again and drain well by pressing in the sieve.
• Meanwhile, put the vinegar and oil in a large bowl, add the cavolo nero and massage in the dressing with your hands to soften it.
• Add the quinoa, onion, pepper and raisins, then toss well. Spoon half onto plates, scatter over 1 chopped avocado, crumble in half the feta and toss. The remainder will keep chilled for up to three days. Top with the remaining avocado and feta, then serve.

SHREDDED GREENS SALAD

Steps:

• Zest and juice 2 of the limes into a big salad bowl. Top and tail the remaining 2 limes to sit flat on a chopping board. Use a small serrated fruit knife to cut away the peel and pith in downward strokes. Cut the segments from the pith and roughly chop. Add to the salad bowl with the apples, fennel, cucumber, celery, spring onions and olive oil. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
