Preparations
1. Preheat oven to 180C (350F)

Cooking Instructions
1. Bring a small saucepan of water to boil and add the quinoa. Cover over with the lid and cook for 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.

2. To prepare the salmon, in a small bowl, mix the honey/soy sauce. Place the salmon onto a baking tray and spoon the mixture over the top (reserve ½ a tablespoon of honey/soy sauce). Turn the salmon to coat all over. Place in the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes. Turn a few times through cooking time to baste.

3. Steam the green beans in a small amount of water (½ inch of water) for 3-5 minutes until tender but crisp. Plunge in cold water and set aside.

4. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for about a minute. Add the kale, a pinch of salt and pepper and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until wilted.

5. Drain the green beans, add to the cooked quinoa with the lemon juice and a large pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well to combine.

6. Add a tsp of warm water to the remaining soy sauce/honey mixture and stir.

7. Serve the salmon on top of the quinoa with the kale on the side. Drizzle over the soy/honey mixture.
