Kale Salad

 I had some requests for a kale recipe a few months ago.  My friend S brings fresh kale over from time to time from her sister's garden so I have got used to using this healthy vegetable over the years.

This is a simple kale salad.  I found that there is no need to massage the kale leaves if you just cut them into small bits as pictured above.  I added cucumber, yellow bell pepper and a tomato to the kale leaves.  I discard the stems but you could blend those into a pesto.  The fresh dressing below makes it all delicious.

Kale salad dressing:

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 c olive oil

1 tsp sugar

1/3 c white vinegar

1 tsp dijon mustard

pinch of red pepper
