Kale and Avocado Salad image

Easy to assemble, and so healthy for you ! Kale and avocado are two of the best vegetables for your health, and this simple recipe combines both with simple ingredients that are packed with nutrition . 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.
