Kale, a type of leafy green in the cabbage family, lacks the bitterness and peppery flavor found in other cruciferous vegetables, making it an incredibly versatile leafy green. Kale has gained immense popularity due to its health benefits, which include being an excellent source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Kale slaw is a delicious and refreshing take on the traditional coleslaw, substituting cabbage for kale. It offers a simple side dish or a topping for tacos, sandwiches, or burgers. With endless variations available, from classic mayonnaise-based dressings to tangy vinaigrettes and creamy avocado-based dressings, you can easily create a kale slaw that suits your taste preferences. Kale slaw is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed year-round.

Kale and Brussels Slaw with Quinoa image

This healthy, hearty slaw from Sara Forte of A Sprouted Kitchen is a delicious addition to your holiday menu.

Provided by Reynolds Kitchens(R)

Categories     Trusted Brands: Recipes and Tips     Reynolds®

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons chopped shallots
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon maple syrup
½ cup extra virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
¾ cup roughly chopped hazelnuts
3 tablespoons cane sugar
1 pinch cayenne pepper
2 small bunches lacinato (dinosaur) kale, stems removed
½ pound Brussels sprouts
¾ cup cooked and cooled quinoa
⅔ cup pomegranate seeds
3 green onions, thinly sliced
⅔ cup shaved Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil

Steps:

  • In a food processor, combine the shallots, vinegar, lemon juice, maple syrup, olive oil, salt and pepper and blend until smooth. Set aside.
  • Line a small baking sheet with Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil. Set aside.
  • In a non-stick pan over medium heat, combine the hazelnuts, sugar and cayenne. Stir with a silicone spatula until the sugar has melted and sticks to the nuts, about 5 minutes; turn down the heat to prevent burning if needed. Spread the sticky nuts out on the foil-lined sheet to cool. When the nuts are cool enough to handle, break them up by hand.
  • Stem the kale and chop well. Using a mandoline, shred the Brussels sprouts, discarding the tough ends. Combine both in a large salad bowl. Add the hazelnuts, quinoa, pomegranate seeds, green onions and cheese. Dress to your liking and serve immediately.

KALE SLAW WITH CURRIED ALMOND DRESSING



Kale Slaw With Curried Almond Dressing image

Make and share this Kale Slaw With Curried Almond Dressing recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Denise J

Categories     Vegan

Time 45m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 medium apple, julienned thinly, tossed in
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 cups julienned kale leaves, stems discarded (red Russian or tuscan kale is great)
1 1/2 cups grated carrots
1 cup thinly sliced and julienned fennel bulb
1/4 cup craisins
1/4 cup almonds, sliced
2/3 cup almonds, ground (ground almond flour, found in the bulk section of grocery stores)
2 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2/3 cup water
1 small garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • I start by making the dressing first in a high speed blender until smooth, then mixing it throughly with the kale to help soften it. The dressing includes the almond flour, vinegar, maple syrup, water, garlic, mustard, salt, pepper and curry powder.
  • After the kale has been mixed with the dressing, toss the remaining ingredients with the kale. It is better if it sits a while before eating so the flavors can blend, but it is not essential. If you cannot find ground almond flour, you can use raw whole almonds but it will take more powerful blending to make it into a smooth and creamy dressing.

KALE SLAW



Kale Slaw image

I've made this slaw many times with Kale from our garden; most recently for a church potluck with several requests for the recipe. Just received one from a friend "to offset all the heavy starchy (but yummy!) dishes on the [Thanksgiving] menu". Sounds like a good idea to me!

Provided by Dennie Lou

Categories     Other Salads

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

STEP ONE (FOR KALE LOVERS):
1 bunch fresh kale, chopped
1 large carrot, shredded
1/2 red onion, sliced very thin
1 orange, juiced
1 lemon, juiced
salt, to taste
pepper to taste
STEP TWO (FOR THOSE NEW TO KALE):
1/2 c candied pecans (in nut aisle)
1/2 c craisins
OPTIONAL (BUT DELICIOUS):
1 slice bacon, cooked and crumbled
3 Tbsp mayonnaise
1 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin

Steps:

  • 1. I use about 10-20 leaves of Russian Kale from our garden, but any Kale will do. I'd say the volume is about 8-12 cups of chopped kale, so judge accordingly if you buy the kale in a market. Chop to about 1/2"x1" pieces. Then add carrot and onion in a large bowl.
  • 2. Fresh squeeze the juice of one good-sized orange and lemon. Mix and add to the greens and veggies. Use your hands to rub the orange and lemon juices into the kale leaves. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • 3. You can stop here if you like, it is surprisingly quite fresh tasting and delicious!
  • 4. Add the candied pecans (slightly chopped) and craisins. Mix well. You can stop here and serve a very delicious salad.
  • 5. Add the bacon. This ingredient is optional, I only occasionally add it, and even sometimes use the "Real Bacon" (purchased in a jar found in the salad condiment aisle) so I don't have to cook anything.
  • 6. Combine the mayonnaise and olive oil (I shake it in a 1/2 pint canning jar with lid). Add and mix well to coat all ingredients.
  • 7. Refrigerate until serving. This can be made several hours ahead of time. One of a very few fresh green salads that can be leftover and eaten the next day!

KALE SLAW



Kale Slaw image

I love this as a substitute for a salad and it keeps great. I don't normally put carrot but it really makes it look better and gives it some texture. I add the mayo to 'eye' it. I like it creamier but my other half doesn't. The lemon makes a HUGE difference!

Provided by meggerz802

Categories     Salad     Green Salad Recipes     Kale Salad Recipes

Time 30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 bunch kale, stems removed and leaves thinly sliced
1 large carrot, shredded
½ orange, juiced
½ lemon, juiced

½ red onion, very thinly sliced
1 slice cooked bacon, chopped
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Toss kale with carrot, orange juice, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper in a large salad bowl, using your hands to rub orange and lemon juice into kale leaves. Let stand a few minutes to absorb flavors.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage: Green cabbage is the most common type used in coleslaw, but you can also use red cabbage or a mix of both. For a sweeter coleslaw, use savoy cabbage.
  • Shred the cabbage finely: This will help the dressing to coat the cabbage evenly.
  • Use a sharp knife or mandolin to shred the cabbage: This will give you thin, even slices.
  • Add other vegetables: Carrots, celery, onion, and bell pepper are all popular additions to coleslaw. You can also add fruits like apples, grapes, or pineapple.
  • Make your own dressing: A simple dressing made with mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and salt is all you need. You can also add other ingredients like mustard, celery seeds, or caraway seeds.
  • Let the coleslaw chill before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the cabbage to soften slightly.
  • Serve coleslaw as a side dish or on top of sandwiches, tacos, or burgers.

Conclusion:

Coleslaw is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It's a great way to use up leftover cabbage and other vegetables, and it's a healthy and refreshing side dish for any meal. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a coleslaw recipe that everyone will enjoy.
