Kale and Brown Rice Salad

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1/2 a cup of brown rice
    juice from 1/2 of a lemon
    kale- I use 2-3 big leaves (but it depends on how much kale you want)
    raisins- I use about 2 tablespoon golden, but again whatever kind you like
    olive oil- to taste (enough to blend with the lemon) about 2 tablespoons
    ground pepper
    yellow, red or orange pepper- I use 2/3s of a pepper
    walnuts- a small handful
    one clove of garlic

Directions:

This recipe is really easy (and cheap).  I got the idea for it  from a quinoa salad that a friend made (which you could easily use in place of brown rice).

1. Cook the rice (this is the most time consuming part).

2. While the rice is cooking, set the kale to steam for about 13 minutes.

3. Chop the pepper and garlic into small pieces and add to a bowl with the lemon juice, olive oil and ground pepper.

4. Take the cooked rice off the stove and add to the bowl along with the raisins, nuts, and kale, which is into bite sized pieces.

5. Stir and enjoy.

Serves: 2

Preparation time: 45 minutes
