Red Quinoa Lacinato Kale Salad – www.rawgirltoxicworld.com
I know, I know, I’ve been M.I.A. Did you miss me? I spent the last two months making a movie and I am tired and in need of a serious detox to say the least. The past week has been dedicated to getting my body back to one. I am also getting ready to do a gangsta beginning of the year parasite cleanse, which I am developing to share with all of you who need a concrete plan that works. So stay tuned. Yesterday’s lunch following a very awesome Yoga Sculpt class (which combines vinyasa flow, weight training, and cardio), was my favorite complete protein, quinoa. Photo and ingredients of the delicious salad below. For those who have kept reading in my absence…just in time for Valentine’s Day I would like to say, I heart you very much. -XoXo Raw Girl
