Ingredients:

• 1 large bunches curly kale, de-stemmed and torn or chopped into pieces, about 6 cups
• 1/4 tsp sea salt
• 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1 Tbsp olive oil

Salad Ingredients:

• 6 cups of prepared, ‘massaged’ kale leaves
• 1 pint strawberries, quartered
• 3/4 cup fresh organic blueberries

Homemade Citrusy Vinaigrette:

• 1/4 tsp eash, sea salt and white pepper
• 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Instructions:

To Prep Kale:

Add the kale to a large glass bowl along with the salt and lemon juice.

‘Massage’ (think of the motion used to rub someone’s shoulders…get your hands in there!) kale for 4 minutes, or until leaves are sweet and tender.

Add the olive oil and give one more quick ‘massage.”

For the Dressing:

In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients until well combined. Set aside.

To a large bowl add ‘massaged’ kale and pour over the dressing. Toss well to combine and soften the leaves.
