Tamara Braun Instagram – Okay, Suse, this is for you!! 🩷🩷
Made this TG night for my friend Susie along with the other TG goodies. Wanted something light and healthy. Threw it together with what I had and Suse wanted me to write it down. So…I remade it. Here’s the approximations.
Salad:
1 C cooked Quinoa
1/2-1 C shredded Kale
1 C finely chopped Persian Cucumber
1/2 C Honey crisp apple
1/4-1/2 C shredded Brussels sprouts(w oo salt & cracked pepper)
Pomegranate on top
ACV just a drizzle if you feel it’s missing something. See below
Dressing:
1/8 C fresh lemon juice(meyer)
1/2-1 T Olive oil (I used 1/2)
1/2 t Maple syrup
1 med clove Garlic
1/8 t Salt
Pepper
1 t Dijon mustard
Make quinoa. Let cool. You could make the day before if you want.
Wash and cut up kale into very small pieces. Place in bowl with lemon juice and a sprinkle of salt. Massage kale with hands for 30 seconds. It will shrink down and make kale more digestible. Let it sit and marinade while you chop up your Brussels sprouts and put a little OO, salt and pepper on them. Let Brussels sit while you chop up your apples, cucumbers into small pieces and get those pomegranate seeds out of their casing.
Make your dressing.
When your quinoa is cool and all your ingredients are chopped up, assemble salad. Pour in dressing. Add pomegranates to the top. Taste. I added a tiny tiny splash of ACV after I tasted bc I wanted it a little bit brighter. Not necessary and @kimberlyyat NO vinegar for you!!
Sometimes holiday foods are heavy in these winter months. If you want a nice, light, protein rich, fiber filled salad then try this one. Would be as a side, paired with a hearty soup OR as an entree salad! Do what makes you happy.
Many smiles for all of you. Remember to share your food and love with others. There are so many in need. Big hugs!!
