Introduction

The mixture of flavors in this salad is fantastic... even better when the ingredients are in-season. My brother-in-law, who "doesn't eat kale" had two helpings!

Ingredients

    SALAD INGREDIENTS
    8 cups raw kale, broken into bite-sized pieces
    1 cup cherry tomatoes, cut in half
    1 cup green grapes
    1/2 cup red onion, sliced thin
    1/4 cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds), roasted, unsalted
    2.5 ounces feta cheese
    DRESSING INGREDIENTS
    1/4 cup light olive oil
    1/4 cup Organic apple cider vinegar
    1-2 Tbs raw (local, if possible) honey
    dash of sea salt
    dash of fresh, ground pepper
    dash (1/2 tsp?) sesame oil

Tips

I often do not use all the dressing and can make another salad in the following days.

If you have any leftovers (ha!) it is just as good - maybe better - the next day.


Directions

Assemble salad ingredients in a large salad bowl.

Mix dressing ingredients, EXCEPT sesame oil, in measuring cup. Warm through in microwave and mix well. Add sesame oil.

Toss the salad with the warm dressing (the heat of the dressing helps to soften the kale) and serve.
