Cook your quinoa, boiling if dry or microwaving if frozen.
Wash and dry your finely chopped kale and massage with a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt.
Toss kale with chickpeas, green onion, and sliced pecans. Mix in quinoa.
For the lemon dressing, whisk together all the ingredients and give it a taste. If you like the tartness of the lemon juice keep it as is or feel free to add a little extra oil. Pour over salad and mix well. Top with your favorite protein—I love it with salmon!
You can eat right away or chill before serving.
