Easy Kale Salad

 Easy Kale Salad

1 Bunch Kale, stemmed and washed
1 T. Olive Oil
2 T. Balsamic Vinegar
1 Cup Pitted and Sliced Cherries (you can substitute dried cherries or cranberries)
1 T. Sunflower Seeds
Maldon Sea Salt, to taste
Ingredients 


























1) Remove center rib from kale, cut kale into bite size pieces and wash. I use a salad spinner and the kids help with that spinning the leaves dry.



2) Mix dried kale leaves with 1 T. olive oil.  Use your hands and massage the kale for at least three (3) minutes.  It will soften the kale and release the bitterness.

3) Drizzle with 2 T. balsamic vinegar

4) Top with cherries and sunflower seeds

5) Sprinkle with salt**Maldon Sea Salt is flaky and strong, a pinch will go a long way.
