Are you tired of Kale? You shouldn’t be because it’s a super packed, cancer fighting, health boosting wizard of foods!
Stuff it in your smoothie, your soups, your bubble bath—kidding, but you could probably make a kale salve; it is all the rage these days!
Here’s a kale salad I’m loving these days. The sunflower seeds are packed with vitamins and minerals that are anti-inflammatory, lower cholesterol and add protein to you salad, which will keep you full longer.
Enjoy. And tell your cells, “They’re Welcome!”
4 cups chopped kale (~5oz or 1 head chopped or 1/2 Trader Joes bag)
1/2 carrot shredded
1 lemon, juiced
1/4-1/2 cup sesame seeds
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1/4 white onion grated or chopped
Small clove of garlic minced
EITHER 2 Tbsp of humus, tahini, or miso mayo (optional)
3 dashes salt
1 Tbsp or 4 dashes thyme
makes 4 small salads or 6-8 small servings
I make something similar to this, and it is VERY good! YUM! My kids are tired of roasted kale so I’ve taken to salads and such with it.
Good on you! I stash it in soups, salads and on gourmet gluten-free pizza. Kale is not a trend. Highest ANDI score, and so versatile, what’s not to love?
