Ingredients

For the salad:

  • 1 small head of cauliflower chopped into florets
  • 2 small broccoli crowns chopped into florets
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed and drained

Instructions

  • Working in 2-3 batches (depending on the size of your food processor), add the cauliflower florets to the bowl of a food processor and pulse 10-15 times until the texture resembles cooked quinoa. Add to a large mixing bowl. Repeat with broccoli florets, adding each batch to the bowl.
