Featured Recipe: Kale, Cranberries, Almonds and Pine Nuts Salad

Ingredients


2 bunches kale leaves, stems and tough ribs removed, leaves very finely chopped

½ cup cranberries

½ cup  almonds

¼ cup pine nuts

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Or ½ cup of fat free/low fat honey mustard dressing



Directions

Place kale leaves, cranberries, almonds and pine nuts in a serving bowl. In a small bowl, (whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, chili powder and salt or honey mustard). Pour over kale mix and toss to combine well. Taste and add more salt or chili powder if desired.

Tip: The key to this salad is finely chopping the kale leaves. The finer they are, the more they will absorb the dressing and the easier they will be to eat. This salad is a great opportunity to practice good knife skills.
