Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 oz Baby kale
1/4 cup Olive oil
2 tbsp Lemon juice
2 cloves Garlic ((minced))
1/4 tsp Sea salt
1/4 tsp Black pepper
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese ((shaved or shredded))
1 medium Avocado ((cubed))
1/3 cup Pine nuts ((preferably toasted))

Steps:

  • Place the chopped kale into a large bowl. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper, until a dressing forms. (Alternatively, place dressing ingredients into an airtight container and shake vigorously.)
  • Pour the dressing over the kale leaves and toss to coat. Use your hands to massage the dressing into the leaves for a minute or two (pick up a bunch, squeeze, and repeat). Do this until the kale softens and begins to wilt. (It will happen fast with baby kale, and takes a little longer with regular kale.)
  • Add the parmesan cheese, chopped avocado, and toasted pine nuts. Toss again.

We grow kale and grape tomatoes in our backyard garden, so this salad is part of our monthly menu.We hope you enjoy it as much as we do ! Be sure to use fresh, young kale- older kale from your local market may be better for soups and stews, and making your own sprouts is a really fresh option to store-bought. The dressing is so easy to make, with ingredients you may already have in your pantry and the Miso is optional, of course.

KALE SALAD WITH AVOCADO FOR TWO



Kale Salad With Avocado for Two image

This refreshing, healthy salad was presented in an uncooking class by the Present Moment Cafe in St. Augustine FL. I love the salad as is, but this version I have added my own inclusion of fresh tomatoes. This sounds strange to do, but believe it is simple and delicious when complete.
