KALE & BACON SALAD WITH HONEY-HORSERADISH VINAIGRETTE



Kale & Bacon Salad with Honey-Horseradish Vinaigrette image

Totally scrumptious and packed with nutrition, this salad was my response to friends who asked how they could incorporate kale into their diets without sacrificing taste. It is also wonderful made with collard or mustard greens, prepared in the same fashion as the kale, or with a mix of spinach & arugula or watercress. -Elizabeth Warren, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

KALE AND APPLE SALAD



Kale and Apple Salad image

Antioxidant-rich kale is even better for you when eaten raw. Thin strips are softened in a light lemon dressing, then tossed with the savory-sweet blend of apple, dates, almonds and cheese. A little pecorino goes a long way in giving this nutritious salad a satisfying depth of flavor.
