Add the dressing ingredients to a mason jar and shake to combine. You can also use a bowl and whisk them together until combined.

Allow salad it sit for 15 minutes before serving (this helps the kale soften a bit). Enjoy as is or serve with your favorite protein!

A delicious vegan Moroccan Salad with blood oranges, quinoa, almonds, olives, mint and a tangy, bright blood orange dressing. Perfect for the holiday table, this salad is festive and healthy!

Moroccan Salad with Blood Oranges, Olives, Almond and Mint

water

salt

green onions, sliced diagonally

kalamata olives

blood oranges- divided (or regular oranges)

red wine vinegar (optional)

honey, maple or sugar

cracked pepper and salt

almonds

mint leaves, torn

Bring quinoa and water and pinch salt to a boil in a medium pot on the stove. Once boiling, cover and lower heat to low and cook 15 minutes.

In a medium bowl, add sliced green onions, sliced olives, and 2 oranges (peeled, cut into quarters, then sliced).

When quinoa is done, fluff with a fork and toss in the bowl with the oranges. Dress with 3-4 tablespoons olive oil, the zest and juice of the remaining orange and 1 teaspoon honey. If you don&#8217;t have a particularly juicy orange, add a splash of vinegar. Stir and taste.  Add salt and pepper to taste. The olives will add quite a bit of salt, so if you leave them out, be sure to add salt.

Scatter with toasted slivered almonds and fresh torn mint leaves.

Feel free to make this ahead and adjust seasonings before serving- quinoa has a tendency to soak up the salt and dressing, so I always check right before serving &#8211; adding more salt or acid if necessary.

I love this: I don't see enough recipes with blood orange! Would love to try more recipes with citrus fruits. Thanks for sharing!

This salad just looks SO fresh and beautiful! Amazing colours and flavours! I can't wait to try it. Pinned!

This was great for the dinner that we had planned
