Rinse quinoa under cold water until water runs clear. Combine quinoa and water in a pot.

Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered for 15 minutes, or until the quinoa is tender and the water has been absorbed.

Let the quinoa cool before adding to the salad

While the quinoa is cooking, place the chopped kale in a large salad bowl and sprinkle with salt. Massage the kale until it softens and turns a deeper green, which should take only a minute.

Rinse and dry the fruit. Add sliced strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, halved grapes, dried blueberries, and crushed pistachios to the cooled quinoa and massaged kale.

Crumble the feta cheese over the salad ingredients

DRESSING

In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, and honey until thoroughly mixed.

SALAD

Pour over the salad and gently toss everything together, ensuring all ingredients are lightly coated with the dressing
