My first time having Kale salad was at a Whole Foods salad bar, I was hooked! I had to create my own delicious recipe and make it a staple in our home.
The secret to a good kale salad is tearing apart the leaves with your hands and then massaging the broken leaves with the dressing (for a minute or two). Doing this helps breakdown the cell structure and makes it softer to chew.
Feel free to swap the walnuts for another nut of choice. Toasted pine nuts or almonds pair well.
Enjoy!
