Kale Salad With Lemon Vinaigrette

🧂 Ingredients

• 5 cups kale – packed

  de-stemmed and chopped
• 1/2 tbs olive oil

  or avocado oil
• 2 tbs sunflower seeds

  or sliced almonds
• 3/4 cup pomegranate seeds
• 1/3 cup shredded carrots
• 1/4 cup olive oil

  or avocado oil
• 1 tsp dijon mustard
• zest one lemon
• 2 tbs lemon juice
• 1 clove garlic

  minced
• 1/2 tbs honey
• 1/8 tsp salt
• pepper to taste

Instructions

• 1 De-stem and chop kale and place in a large bowl.
• 2 Add about 1/2 tbsp to 1 tbsp of oil and massage kale. Massaging kale helps break
  down the tough leaves, making it easier to eat and bringing out the flavor.
• 3 Chop apples and carrots and add to the bowl. If you are making this ahead of
  time, toss a little bit of lemon juice with the apples to prevent them from
  browning. 
• 4 Sprinkle sunflower seeds and pomegranate into the bowl.
• 5 In a separate bowl, make lemon vinaigrette dressing by adding the minced garlic,
  mustard, honey, salt, pepper, and lemon juice and whisking until well-mixed. It
  will be a nice, pale yellow color.
• 6 Add olive oil and whisk until completely combined.
• 7 Pour desired amount of vinaigrette over kale salad, and toss until combined
  well. Or, serve the dressing on the side.
• 8 Enjoy!
