(Quite Possibly) The Easiest Kale Salad Recipe Ever
As you probably know by now, I absolutely love kale. This super veggie is loaded with nutrition–one cup of kale contains just 36 calories, and has 5 g fiber, calcium, Vitamin B6, magnesium, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, copper, potassium, iron, manganese and phosphorus. It’s health benefits are primarily linked to the high concentration of antioxidant vitamins A, C and K and sulphur-containing phytonutrients.
The other day, I was really craving a raw kale salad but was short on time. So, I threw together this kale salad in just 5 minutes. And it was DELICIOUS!
I couldn’t wait to share it with you:
(Quite Possibly) The Easiest Kale Salad Recipe Ever
1. Take a container of pre-washed, pre-cleaned organic kale: I bought this package at New Leaf Community Market.
2. Pour kale into a bowl and sprinkle with a little pinch of sea salt.
3. Next, massage kale (like you were kneading bread dough) for 3 minutes until it breaks down.
4. Add 1/3 cup your favorite tahini-based salad dressing (my favorite is from New Leaf–seriously, have you tried this stuff?) and a sprinkle of tamari or soy sauce.
5. And that’s it! A quick, easy, super-healthy kale salad that tastes delicious. It’s lunch time!
Enjoy and until next time, Eat Well, Be Well and LOVE Every Bite!
