I do recommend my clients to eat more green leafy vegetables to increase their intake of necessary vitamins and minerals. So, here you go! A delicious and full of goodies steamed kale with quinoa

Ingredients:

½ cup cooked quinoa

Himalayan salt, to taste

Method:

In a large pot, combine the quinoa (soaked overnight) with 2 cups water and ¾ tsp salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and turn the heat to low, simmering until liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, tear the kale leaves from their stems and coarsely chop them. Wash if necessary.

Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat and then add the garlic and onion, carrots, bell pepper, cooking about 2 minutes. Add in the kale and a few pinches of salt. Cover with lid and cook on a low heat for about 10 minutes. Transfer the kale to a large bowl and then stir in the lemon zest, dill and parsley. When the quinoa is done, stir in the quinoa.
