Rainbow Kale Salad

August 23, 2020 By chefelyse Leave a Comment

This salad is rich in color, delicious on the palate, easy on the belly and nurturing to the body.  Feel free to throw in any other chopped veggies that you have on hand.  The key is to keep everything cut small. You can do this with a knife or with a few quick pulses in the food processor.  Generally it’s best to serve hearty greens like kale with a thick and creamy dressing, even if its just smooshed avocado and lemon!

serves 2 people as a main dish (for more heft, you can add tofu or chickpeas) or 4 people as a side dish

There may seem like a lot of ingredients here but really the key is a leafy green and a lot of raw veggies all chopped about the same size
