This citrus salad definitely fulfills your citrus and green needs.
I love a salad that is full of texture. I added the quinoa to make this a lunch that will keep me going all afternoon. It definitely did the trick.
I found this amazing lacinato kale at whole foods and knew I had to have some. It was the most gorgeous green and soo full of life. It seriously was the best kale I’ve ever tasted. I’m not a huge kale fan either. It paired perfectly with this citrus dressing.
If you fell off the bandwagon hop back on with this yummy and super healthy salad! It is sure to get you inspired and back on track.
