- Begin by removing kale leaves from the stems. Discard stems and toss leaves in a large mixing bowl. Then rip leaves into tinier bite-sized peices (the smaller the better).
- Scrunch kale with hands for 30s to soften. (This makes the leaves less tough, and for better absorption of dressing). Add shredded cabbage, cooked quinoa*, chopped cashews, and pinch sea salt and pepper to bowl.
- Make your green goddess dressing: In a blender add parsley, apple cider vinegar, coconut yogurt, garlic clove, olive oil, agave, mustard and pinch sea salt. Blend until smooth consistency.
