Ingredient IQ
English walnuts were first grown in California in the late 1700s, with commercial production beginning in the late 1800s. Today, California grows 99 percent of the walnuts sold in the United States and two-thirds of the walnuts sold worldwide. We love this popular nut because it’s an excellent plant-based source of omega-3 fatty acids along with protein, fiber, magnesium, and phosphorus.

Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep the kale; cook the quinoa

  • In a large bowl, combine the kale with 1 teaspoon [2 tsp] oil, season with salt, and gently massage the leaves. Let stand while you prepare the rest of the meal.
  • Rinse the quinoa.
In a small sauce pot, combine the quinoa and 1 cup [2 cups] lightly salted water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the quinoa is tender and the water is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Spread the quinoa out on a plate or sheet pan to cool.
While the quinoa cooks and cools, prepare the remaining ingredients.

2

Prep the remaining ingredients

  • Using your hands or a sharp knife, peel the orange; cut the fruit into ½-inch pieces. Discard any seeds.
  • Cut the avocado in half lengthwise. Remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and cut the flesh into ½-inch pieces.
  • Strip the mint leaves from the stems; coarsely chop the leaves.
In a small bowl, stir together the honey-lime yogurt and mint; season to taste with salt and pepper.

3

Assemble the salad

To the bowl with the kale, add the cooled quinoa, orange, avocado, blueberries, and walnuts and toss to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the salad to individual bowls, drizzle with the honey-lime yogurt, and serve.
