Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Organic kale
- 6 cups, chopped and stems removed
- Dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup
- Sliced almonds
- 1/2 cup, toasted
- Feta cheese
- 1/2 cup, crumbled
- Olive oil
- 1/4 cup
- Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons
- Honey
- 1 tablespoon
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped kale, dried cranberries, sliced almonds, and crumbled feta cheese. Toss gently to mix the ingredients evenly.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is well emulsified.
- Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss until everything is evenly coated and the kale is slightly wilted.
- Allow the salad to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. This resting time allows the kale to soften slightly, making it more palatable, and the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature for the best taste experience. Enjoy this salad as a refreshing side dish or a nourishing main course!
