I think every time a new year begins we reevaluate our habits, particularly when it comes to food. I, of course, am no different. If you’re looking for a quick and healthy addition to your salad repertoire here is a great and easy recipe for you to try.
Creamy Lemon Kale Salad
- 1 bunch large bunch lacinato kale (chopped)
- 1 lemon zest and juice
- 3 tablespoons Vegenaise
- 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Take time to massage, yes, massage, the kale with the dressing ingredients.
Kale can be tough, which is why I like it. It doesn’t get soggy like spring mix or baby spinach. Massaging the kale softens it a bit yet you still get that fabulous crunch. If you like sardines, you can definitely add them for a little saltiness. Grilled chicken is great with this too! Obviously, if the thought of vegan mayonnaise makes you weary, go ahead and use the real stuff!
