THE BEST KALE SALAD WITH PARMESAN AND PINE NUTS

Steps:

• Rinse the kale leaves and pat dry. Trim the stalky veins from the leaves and discard. Cut the leaves into very thin slices and place in a large mixing bowl.

Drizzle the chopped kale with 2 tablespoons of the dressing then use your fingers to massage the kale leaves for a few minutes until it becomes glossy and reduces in volume.

QUINOA SALAD WITH KALE, PINE NUTS, AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• 1. In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the quinoa and sauté, stirring, until lightly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the water and kale, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, until the quinoa is tender and the water has been absorbed, 15 to 18 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and let cool. Stir occasionally to bring the warmer part of the mixture up from the bottom.
• 2. In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar and mustard until smooth. Add a pinch each of salt and pepper. Slowly add the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, whisking continuously to emulsify the dressing.
• 3. Drizzle the dressing over the cooled quinoa mixture. Stir in the pine nuts and Parmesan cheese and season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Cover and chill completely, 2 to 3 hours. Stir just before serving to fluff the salad and break up any clumps.
