Kale is one of those powerhouse veggies that I want to love and eat as often as possible, but still isn't my favorite veggie. :) So when I saw that this recipe mixed it with quinoa (which I DO love!), I was excited but a little nervous to try it. This recipe is good, and definitely healthy. I loved the texture and tiny bit of sweetness the green apple gives it but you have to love mustard to like this dressing. Thankfully I LIKE mustard so I didn't think it was too bad, but this is not my most favorite thing to eat. I enjoyed it for one meal, but wasn't overly excited to make it again. If you love kale and you love mustard though, you might just totally dig this recipe!
1 green apple, chopped
1/2 cup cooked and chilled quinoa
As much kale as you think you'll eat

salt and pepper to taste
