    Bursting with fresh, zingy flavours, this Kale, Almond, Quinoa and Goji Berry Salad is packed with nutrients. Kale is an excellent plant source of easily-absorbed calcium, as well as being one of the highest antioxidant foods available. The quinoa, almonds and goji berries also contain protein.
