My kale salad


 I found an easy kale salad recipe here .  It came together quickly, first you have to add olive oil to the chopped kale leaves and massage them for a couple of minutes until they soften a bit.  Then I just added some roasted almonds, lemon juice and grated parmesan cheese.  It was flavourful and delicious!

At first  I was put off at the thought of massaging the leaves to soften them, but it is only for a couple of minutes.  The benefit is this nutritious salad.  Oops, I forgot to slice my almonds!

In other news we got our first snowfall, all day yesterday.  We shovelled twice as my friend S told me it was wet and packing snow so quite heavy.

I've never made a kale salad before.
I don't know if it is good for me :)

You have made yourself a healthy, delicious salad.
You have snow, close I can wait a long time. Unfortunately I hardly have any snow with me through the sea.
I wish you a good week, hug Elke

Looks good. No snow in Scotland yet. Just rain rain rain. Though for this time of year, it has been really mild!

I am glad you lie the kale. I just can't eat it like that. I do put it in my smoothies.

Looks lovely. I like kale chips baked in the oven.

Very interesting - years ago my youngest who use to work at a particular restaurant as a Sous chef, was told the restaurant wouldn't allow kale in their recipes because of possible lawsuits if the person choked on it and they didn't want to be responsible. I guess they never heard of the term massaging the lettuce. I have Spinach salads a lot but just never think of having kale.

Kale is so nutritious and that is such a good idea to add olive oil to the chopped kale leaves and massage them for a couple of minutes until they soften a bit, it makes such a difference doesn't it.

All the best Jan

I haven't bought kale because it was too hard. I never thought of massaging it. This sounds very delicious.
