For the dressing:
2 tablespoons lemon or lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
zest of one orange
Optional: Kaufmann 1 sweetener of choice

Cook quinoa according to package directions and allow to cool. Wash kale and remove center ribs.

Shred kale (you should have about 2 cups shredded) and prepare remaining salad ingredients.

Prepare dressing by placing lemon or lime juice in a small bowl, along with orange zest, salt and pepper. Whisk to combine. Add oil while continuing to whisk until thoroughly combined. (If you like a sweet dressing, you could add a bit of stevia to the mixture.)
