“Great effort Dacia! Youve successfully hit your weekly target of including lean protein in your lunch for 4 days. Your choice of salmon with kale and quinoa is a fantastic combination of lean protein and fiber-rich foods. The hibiscus tea is a nice touch too.”
Instructions
1.
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2.
2. Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
3.
3. Bake the salmon for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through and flaky.
4.
4. While the salmon is baking, rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and vegetable broth or water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.
5.
5. In a separate pan, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped kale and sauté for 3-5 minutes until wilted. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
6.
6. Once the quinoa is cooked, fluff it with a fork and mix in the sautéed kale.
7.
7. Serve the quinoa and kale mixture in bowls, topped with the baked salmon and optional cherry tomatoes.
