Kasha & Kale Salad with Preserved Lemon Dressing

February 18, 2013 By Courtney West 2 Comments

Lately, I’ve been testing a lot for the farmer’s market.  This means that I’m surrounded by a lot of baked goods of which I am obligated to eat at least a few to know whether or not they are delicious or disgusting.     It’s a hard life, but it’s more than made up for with runs, walks, more runs, and salads like this one.

This is a typical dinner or lunch for me.  I tend to combine whatever grain I feel like cooking with some fresh veggies, a bit of toasted nuts for crunch, and a light dressing to bring it all together.  This combination has never let me down and is infinitely customizable depending on what’s available.  It also holds up really well in the fridge and can be served cold, warm, or at room temperature.

I’ll admit that this soup’s humble appearance won’t be winning any beauty contests, but it will more than make up for it in taste.  Plus, it’s nice to have some humble looking food every now and then.  Ever heard of humble pie? (HAHA!).  On an unrelated note, I just realized there’s an inverted camera-wielding Courtney staring at you from the spoon in the last photo.  Oops.  Happy soup-making!
