How to Prepare Curried Kale and Quinoa Salad [Vegan]

Bring quinoa to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes, until all liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let sit 5 more minutes with lid on. Fluff with a fork.
While quinoa is cooking, prepare remaining salad ingredients and combine in a large bowl.
Prepare vinaigrette by combining all ingredients in a blender and blending until smooth.
Let quinoa cool slightly, and add to salad bowl. Top with as much or as little dressing as you like and toss. Eat warm, or cold. Enjoy!
