Ingredients

  • 1 cup/7oz/100g of red quinoa, rinsed
  • 2 cups or 2 large handfuls of butternut squash, cut into bite sized pieces
  • 1/4 cup or small handful of cranberries
  • 1/4 cup or small handful of candied pecans
  • 1/4 cup or small handful of pomegranate seeds
  • 3 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups or large handfuls of kale, stems removed and cut into large pieces
  • one ripe pear, peeled, cored and cut into bite sized pieces
  • olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar ( a flavored vinegar such as pomegranate would be great here, I loved Olivetti in Darien, and I am devastated to see it has closed.)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • salt and pepper
