Kale Salad
If you aren't a fan of kale, this Kale Salad recipe may just change your mind forever! The game changers? Good quality olive oil, sweet and tart dried cranberries and a massage treatment for the kale which results in the most tender bite. Trust me on this one and make it immediately.
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 6 cups kale about 4 or 5 leaves
- 1 pear
- ¼ cup sliced almonds
- ¼ cup dried cranberries
- 1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil the best quality you have
- 1 teaspoon agave or honey/maple syrup
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Take 4-5 leaves of kale (6 cups approximately) and take the leaf off the stem. Wash and pat it dry.
- Chop your kale finely or you can even rip it in small pieces with your hands and add to a bowl. In a separate bowl mix in your olive oil, agave, and white balsamic vinegar and set aside.
- Add the chopped kale to a bowl and sprinkle in a touch of salt. Massage it for 30 seconds to a minute with your hands until it is nice and soft.
- Add the rest of your ingredients which are the nuts, dried cranberries and chopped pear and drizzle on your beautiful sweet and tangy vinaigrette. Crumbling in some goat cheese would be so good in here too if you are a lover of cheese. Enjoy,
