Kale, Quinoa, and Avocado Salad with Lemon Dijon Vinaigrette image

Steps:

Bring the quinoa and 1 1/3 cup water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender, and the water has been absorbed, about 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Place kale in a steamer basket over 1 inch of boiling water in a saucepan. Cover saucepan with a lid and steam kale until hot, about 45 seconds; transfer to a large plate. Top kale with quinoa, avocado, cucumber, bell pepper, red onion, and feta cheese.
Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, sea salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until the oil emulsifies into the dressing; pour over the salad.

CROUTONS: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Tear apart crusty rolls or bread into small 1-inch pieces. Spread in an even layer on a sheet pan and bake for 8-12 minutes or until toasted. Remove and let cool. Alternatively use store-bought croutons.
KALE: Start by removing the thick stems and then very thinly slice (ribbon) or chop the kale (the smaller the shreds of kale, the better). Once it's all chopped, put it in a colander (or the base of a salad spinner) and give it a quick rinse. Sprinkle some fine sea salt on top (about 1/2 to 1 full teaspoon) and, using your hands, rub and massage the salt into the kale. Massage the kale for about a minute and then give it another quick rinse. Allow the kale to dry completely before using in the salad. If you have a salad spinner, spin until it is thoroughly dried.
DRESSING: In a blender jar, combine 1/2 of a large, ripe avocado (about 1/2 cup), 1/4 cup mayo, 1/2 tablespoon garlic (I thinly slice garlic cloves to get this measurement), 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard, the zest and juice of a lemon (1 teaspoon zest and 2 tablespoons lemon juice; add an extra tablespoon for a more lemony dressing), and 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce. Season to taste (I add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper). Pour in 1/2 cup water. Blend until completely smooth; taste the dressing, and adjust to personal preference adding more lemon/salt/pepper as needed. (The salad is quite salty with the Parmesan cheese, so start with less salt in the dressing). Place the kale and the dressing in the fridge to chill while preparing the rest of the salad.
VEGGIES: Halve the cucumbers and then slice thinly to get half moons. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Thinly slice or chop the remaining avocado half. Add all the veggies on top of the kale. Pour dressing over and toss until combined. Add 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese, 1/3 cup sunflower seeds, and croutons on top. Toss once more and serve.

Using your hands, massage the kale with avocado, mashing it with you fingers so that the kale becomes coated in avocado. Let kale rest for about 15 minutes before serving.
