Power up

Ever heard of the key power foods you're supposed to eat for maximum health? Well I managed to combine several of them into one meal this week. Bammo! Take that power foods.

So here's what I did: I boosted up regular old salmon cakes with two super health additions -- kale and quinoa. I had both cooked in advance, and added the chopped kale (probably 1/2 cup or so) to just about a cup of quinoa. Then, in went a tin of salmon, mashed a fork, some dried dill, two beaten eggs and lots of pepper and salt.

Here's how they looked in a pan with just about a teaspoon of olive oil. They were fairly wet, but still held together well.

I had them with an orange and fennel salad. Healthy and powerful!
