Ingredients
- 4-5 cups mixed kale spinach and chard
- 1/2 cup cooked quinoa
- 1/3 cup diced brie - rind off: This is a personal preference
- 8 strawberries (as many as you like- I used 8 cut in halves and quarters
Vinaigrette:
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon brassica mustard
- 1/2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Combine the greens mixture, strawberries and the brie.
- Combine the vinaigrette ingredients completely, using either a lidded jar to shake the ingredients together or a fork to whisk it rapidly.
- Heat the vinaigrette and the quinoa up; the microwave works fast & easy for this.
- Combine the hot vinaigrette and the hot quinoa with the salad rapidly, wilting the greens slightly and softening the brie further. Serve and enjoy!
