Kale Salad Ingredients

  • 2 bunches Curly Kale

Preparation Instructions

  • Start by preparing the kale; remove and discard the stems, then wash the leaves thoroughly with water and place in a bowl.
  • Next, add about 1 teaspoon of sea salt to the kale and use your hands to massage the salt into the kale, until it begins to soften. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
  • Next, chop or crush your croutons finely and add them to the bowl.
  • Then, prepare the dressing by mixing together the remaining ingredients (the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and black pepper) in a small bowl until they're fully combined.
  • Pour the dressing on top of the salad, along with the grated parmesan cheese, and toss to fully combine.
  • Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2-3 days. Enjoy!

Notes

This salad is best served fresh but can be stored for a couple of days in the refrigerator.
