Autumn Salad
Autumn is here and instead of eating classic comfort food, we decided to opt for something a bit healthier. Let me know what you think!
INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked quinoa
1 eggplant
5 radishes, sliced
1 bunch kale, stems removed
Fresh blueberries
2 soft boiled eggs
za’atar
Optional
Hummus
Toasted pumpkin seeds
Extra virgin olive oil
Garlic Expressions dressing
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Slice eggplant into cubes and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the flesh is golden brown.
- Place eggs in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Once the pot starts boiling, remove from heat and let sit for 5-6 minutes (for hard boiled eggs, let them sit for 12 minute). Remove from pot and place in ice cold bowl for a couple minutes.
- Arrange Kale, quinoa, radishes, eggplant, and blueberries in a bowl. Sprinkle a little za’atar over the eggs to taste.
- You may add a dollop of hummus or drizzle some dressing over the top.
