kale and sprout salad with cranberries an roasted almonds

Yesterday at the farmers market at the brickworks I purchased some organic kale and organic ancient grains.  Knowing that I would be entertaining some friends who are vegetarian I wanted to make sure that I had some high protein items to keep them full.
