🥄 Method

1. Preheat & quick-pickle onions

Preheat the oven to 220°C / 200°C fan.
Place the red onion slices in a bowl, cover with red wine vinegar, a pinch of salt, and ½ tsp maple syrup or honey. Set aside to pickle.

2. Make the dressing

Blend all dressing ingredients in a blender until smooth. Add a little extra lemon juice if it needs thinning.

3. Roast the butternut squash

Toss the squash cubes with a drizzle of olive oil on a baking tray. Roast for ~25 minutes until tender. Allow to cool completely.

4. Prepare quinoa

Cook the quinoa according to packet instructions. Remove from heat and let it cool. (Tip: both the squash and quinoa can be prepared a day ahead.)

5. Massage the kale

In a large mixing bowl, add the chopped kale and a squeeze of lemon juice. Massage with your hands until the leaves soften.

6. Assemble the salad

Add the cooled quinoa, roasted squash, olives, toasted pumpkin seeds, and goji berries. Season with salt and pepper, then pour over the green dressing and mix gently.

7. Add final touches

Layer with avocado slices and pickled red onions. Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon juice.
