In the meantime, cook the quinoa (and/or brown rice) according to package.  

While still hot, place pilaf in a large bowl and add all ingredients.  

Mix with wooden spoon just to incorporate all the flavors. The heat of the quinoa will wilt the radicchio and kale and soften the cranberries perfectly.
