Tips:

  • Choose the right kale: Look for kale that is dark green and has no signs of wilting or yellowing. Lacinato kale, also known as dinosaur kale, is a good choice for this salad because it has a slightly sweeter flavor than other varieties.
  • Massage the kale: Massaging the kale with your hands helps to break down the tough fibers and make it more tender. This will make the salad more enjoyable to eat.
  • Use a variety of toppings: This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables and seeds. Some good options include shredded carrots, chopped cucumber, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds.
  • Make it a meal: This salad can be served as a main course or a side dish. If you're serving it as a main course, add some protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu. You can also serve it with a side of bread or quinoa.

This kale salad is a healthy and delicious way to get your daily dose of vegetables. It's packed with nutrients, including vitamins A, C, and K, and it's also a good source of fiber.
