This salad this is a delight! If you try it, “I hope you wike it!” (as my little cherub granddaughter would say.)
2 bunches of kale, washed, dried and stemmed
2 apples, cored and diced
1 medium red onion, very thinly sliced
Vinaigrette
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon coarse-grain Dijon mustard
1/4 cup cider vinegar
3 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup grapeseed oil (or olive oil)
To prepare vinaigrette, combine lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, honey, salt and black pepper in a bowl, then add oil, pouring in a slow stream while whisking.
To prepare salad, tear kale into 1-2 inch pieces. Place kale, onions and apples in large bowl.
Pour in about half the dressing and toss, then add the remaining dressing. I have found that this salad is at it’s prime after it has been “dressed” and refrigerated over night. The kale looks glossed and beautiful and it is a little softened but not wilted. Hope you enjoy this as much as we have! Be creative and add new things such as avocado, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, craisins or whatever you think would be tasty.
Never forget, you are loved today and always,
