Why kale??

Kale is full of antioxidants and full of many other nutrients that protect us from several types of cancer. It has a lot of iron even more so than meat. Kale has a lot of fiber that helps to clean and detoxify our body. The omega-3 content gives our brain the nutrients it needs for top performance and if that wasn’t enough kale also lowers our risk of getting type 2 diabetes.

Kale has a perfect balance of magnesium and calcium, and when you add a little lemon juice to it, you can absorb the calcium much better. And it also has vitamin A, K and a lot of vitamin C. Why kale?? Because kale is delicious! Just look at the picture… don’t you wish you could have a bowl of this salad right in front of you to taste it?

Tips and tricks to prepare this salad:

Choose smaller leaves for freshness and milder flavor.
Look for crisp, green leaves without yellow spots or holes
Cut off the stems but do not throw them away. Use them for juicing, or for soups.
If your family does not like kale at all… start slow. Start by adding less kale and more veggies or combine it with spinach or other greens.
For this salad, I prefer green kale. For sauteeing or baking, I use dinosaur kale or purple kale.
Here is the recipe for my kale pesto that is soo good.
