Honey Mustard Kale Salad

Here is a salad that only takes a few minutes to whip up and it is simply delicious. Packed with plant-based protein powerhouse, quinoa, and you can add in your favorite protein to amp it up even more. This is vegan, gluten free, dairy free, and if you swap the quinoa for protein, the dressing can be adapted to be Whole30 and low carb. This is also perfect for prepping ahead, kale gets better with dressing and not soggy.
