Kale Ceviche Salad (Engine 2) image

From the Engine 2 cookbook, this is one of their most popular recipes. It asks for the kale to be massaged. And that means really squishing the fibers with your hands to soften them. The leaves are waxy, so massaging them with the salt and lemon juice makes them much tastier.

1 bunch kale, leaves stripped off spines. Spines discarded
1 large avocado, peeled (or two small)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt (more to taste)
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 red bell pepper
