METHOD:

1. Cook the quinoa according to packet instructions (usually 13-15 minutes) and then leave to cool. 2. Make up the tahini dressing by stirring/whisking together all the ingredients until smooth and creamy. Add more/less water to reach a pourable consistency. 3. Add the kale to a large mixing bowl with a pinch of salt and the lemon juice. Massage with your hands for one minute until reduced in volume and softened. Pour in half of the dressing and toss well. Now add in the spinach, rocket, chopped parsley, chopped mint, almonds, pomegranate seeds and most of the avocado. Toss again. 4. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan and add the tenderstem broccoli with a pinch of salt. Pan-fry for about 3-5 minutes until lightly charred, turning it over to cook evenly. 5. Divide the salad between two bowls, top with the remaining avocado, the broccoli, extra flaked almonds, pomegranate seeds and drizzle over the tahini dressing. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.
