Kale Salad
This recipe is healthy and delicious. It's a flavoursome salad - juicy, sweet and with a good hit of protein thanks to chickpeas and quinoa. The soaked cranberries give it that extra twang, which complement the kale well. Serve as a side with your dinner or as a filling in wraps or spring rolls.
