Herbal Rawfusion Salad!

This is such a simple, healthy, plant-based meal to try, and great for a meal-prep idea! It's the perfect combination of raw veggies with some cooked, nutritional quinoa, plus the power of fresh herbs! Vegan, and free of gluten, soy, nuts, and fats!
INGREDIENTS:
All of the following ingredients are organic
• 1 bunch of kale - I used lacinato
• 1 bell pepper
• 1/3 red onion (or whatever amount comfortable with)
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp sea salt
• big handful of fresh basil
• big handful of fresh parsley
• handful of mixed, fresh herbs: oregano, parsley, thyme
• 3 leaves of fresh sage
• half a lemon, juiced
• 1 cup of quinoa
• 2 cups of water for boiling
NOTE: If you do not have fresh herbs, add whichever dried herbs you'd like in place of fresh. Remember, dried are more potent in flavor, so use dried sparingly
** OPTIONAL:
1/4 cup of sprouts of choice
3 TBS hemp seeds - adds fat to the meal
Half an avocado - adds fat to the meal

DIRECTIONS:
Add water, quinoa, salt, and garlic powder to a pot and bring to a boil. Then let simmer until cooked. Packages of quinoa will have directions, too!
While quinoa is cooking, wash and finely chop veggies and herbs.
Toss kale into a bowl and add lemon juice. Massage kale for a few minutes to make it easier to digest.
Let quinoa cool for 10 minutes
Add everything together - kale, onions, pepper, herbs and quinoa - to the same bowl and mix thoroughly.
Serve! This can be eaten warm, room temp, or cooked (refrigerated).
This serves as either 1 big serving, 2 medium dishes, or multiple smaller servings. I think it's a great meal to make ahead of time, and to have in the fridge for grab & go! I personally love it chilled (cold) as an appetizer or with dinner as a side dish. Great, easy meal for a meal-prep.
