Fresh, summery recipe I make when my kale is growing, which is generally around 6 to 8 months of the year.
Ingredients
Dressing
- 1/3 cup agave nectar
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 ½ cups brown and wild rice mix
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup orange juice
- ½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
Salad
- 1 ½ cups chopped kale leaves
- ½ cup chopped red bell pepper
- ½ cup toasted pine nuts
- ¼ cup halved seedless red grapes
- 2 tablespoons chopped celery
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil, or to taste
- 1 lemon, zested
Directions
Step 1
Bring brown and wild rice blend, water, orange juice, and salt to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender, 30 to 45 minutes. Drain excess liquid, fluff rice with a fork, and cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes more. Remove from heat and let cool, 20 to 30 minutes.
Step 2
Combine agave nectar, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl for the dressing.
Step 3
Add dressing, kale, bell pepper, pine nuts, grapes, celery, parsley, basil, and lemon zest to the cooled rice and mix well. Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
Cook’s Note:
Substitute pecans or almonds for the pine nuts if preferred.
