Kale is a great base for a summer salad recipe. When paired with dried or fresh berries, filling proteins like chickpeas, salmon or chicken and nuts or seeds, kale salad makes a healthy and delicious meal. Tossed in a maple vinaigrette, this bright, colourful and flavourful salad will make it easy for you to use the never ending kale growing in your garden!
Ingredients for Dressing:
1/2 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3 Tbsp organic maple syrup
2 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
1 Tbsp Brown Mustard
1 clove garlic, minced
1 pinch Sea Salt
Ingredients for Salad:
8 cups kale, chopped
2 cups apples, chopped
15 ounces EDEN Garbanzo Beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup Dried Cranberries, or Dried Cherries
1/2 cup Pistachios
Directions:
Whisk dressing ingredients together. Place kale in a mixing bowl, and massage for 5 minutes. This cuts the bitterness of the kale. Pour dressing over and mix. Let marinate for an hour. Add remaining salad ingredients, toss to mix, and serve.
