Kale salads can be tough and bitter, but this one was surprisingly tender and flavorful. I'll definitely be making it again.

This salad is a great way to get your daily dose of greens. It's also very versatile - I've added roasted chicken, grilled salmon, and even quinoa to it before.

This salad was a hit at my last dinner party! I made a few small changes, like using walnuts instead of pine nuts and adding a bit of honey to the dressing. It was absolutely delicious and everyone raved about it.
