Meet your new favourite salad. It’s mostly just cheese, blueberries, and quinoa… but, still counts as a salad. Right?… RIGHT?? 😅
^After you mix it all together, before you put it in a fancier bowl. To appear fancy.🍸
Fancy bowl.
Uhg, so good. 😩 You’re welcome.
Happy Friday!
Before we get into this salad business, which I’ve food-porned all over above…… I NEED UR HELP! Went to my first pilates class in LA today (I just moved here), and it defs was not the same as Vancouver. I am used to the “megaformer” Pilates and not the traditional Pilates. Seemed very fast, hectic, and almost… out of date? Does anyone have recommendations for the “slow style” megaformer pilates in LA, specifically, Santa Monica? Please email me!! robyn@skinnybelle.com, I’m new here. Girl needs some local tips. 🙏🏻
Alright so back to the best salad you will ever consume. Not trying to ring-a-ding-ding my own bell here or anything, but it is the best.
Why did I make salad today?
Because I am 150% planning on stuffing my face at In-N-Out tonight. Like the classy gal I am. It’s date night and I want to look extra hot for my bf, so I made the glamorous suggestion to go to In-N-Out. That’s how you impress men, right? 🤓
^^ME 💯
Moving right along… my pre-hamburger/fries/milkshake meal was this FREAKING PHENOMENAL salad. Sooooooo good. 🥗
It is so hard to name my recipes because I want you guys to fully understand the awesomeness of the recipe from the title alone, which inclines me to list every single ingredient… But that may be a bit much. Just a bit. 😉
Anyways, if you want a salad that doesn’t taste like grass, a salad that is filled with hearty goodness… this one’s for you my friends.
Eat it up.
Dressing
- 3 tbsp EVOO (extra virgin olive oil, I don’t fuck with any other oil)
- 4 tbsp meyer lemon (if you don’t have meyer do 1 – 2 of regular lemon or you will legit die)
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp whole grain Dijon
- Fresh ground salt + pepper to taste
Instructions: put all that stuff in a jar. Shake it. Taste it.
Salad
- 4 – 5 dino kale leaves, washed and cut up thin (I always remove the stems)
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 2 cups pre-cooked and cooled quinoa
- 1/4 purple onion, super thinly sliced
- As much feta cheese as your little heart desires (mine desired a lot 😝)
All you do is mix everything together, and enjoy!! I seriously hope you guys love this salad as much as I do.
That being said… off to In-N-Out!! 🍔
xoxo,
