Red Quinoa and Tuscan Kale

Red Quinoa and Tuscan Kale
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1 cup red quinoa
  • 3 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 bunch kale, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1/2 sweet onion, diced
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup toasted slivered almonds
  • 1 lemon, juiced and zested
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • sea salt to taste
  • fresh cracked black pepper to taste


  1. Bring water to a boil in a saucepan; add quinoa and red bell pepper. Return water to a boil, place cover on the saucepan, reduce heat to low, and cook for about 10 minutes; add kale and continue cooking until quinoa is tender, about 5 minutes more.
  2. Heat coconut oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic in hot oil until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes; transfer to a large bowl. Stir feta cheese, almonds, lemon juice, lemon zest, and olive oil with the onion mixture; add quinoa mixture and stir. Season mixture with sea salt and cracked black pepper.
