This is my favorite salad that I have been making each week since the kale started growing in my garden. This recipe was inspired from Elizabeth Rider.It’s filling, super nutritious, and lasts a few days in the fridge. Â Lunch or dinner made easy! Â The salad is also delicious on its own if you don’t have any kale, and topped with avocado.
