Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    ⅓ cup Bragg Liquid Aminos or tamari soy sauce
    ⅓ cup lemon juice
    ⅓ cup flax seed oil or extra-virgin olive oil
    ½ medium red onion
    ¼ cup sunflower seeds
    ¼ cup pumpkin seeds
    ¼ cup sesame seeds
    1 pound fresh kale
    ½ cup sunflower sprouts
    ½ cup alfalfa sprouts
    1 avocado diced
    Serves

    Prep Time

    35 minutes
    Directions

    Combine the Bragg or soy sauce and lemon juice in a blender or whisk in a bowl. Slowly dribble in the oil as the blender turns or as you whisk vigorously. Slice the onion into half moons and marinate in the dressing as you prepare the rest of the salad.

    Toast the seeds in a heavy bottomed pan (cast-iron is the best) over medium heat until seeds are just golden and fragrant. Toast each seed type separately as their size requires varying roasting times. Cool to room temperature.

    De stem the kale. Slice kale leaves into ¼ inch ribbons (very important!)

    Toss the seeds, spouts, and kale with the onions, and as much dressing as necessary to lightly but completely dress the kale. Thoroughly massage the kale with your hands.
