Ingredients
- 1 large bunch purple kale (stems removed and discarded)
- Juice of 1 small lemon
- 1 Tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon honey
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons avocado (plus the remainder for serving)
- 4 ounces goat cheese
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 red onion (sliced thin)
- 1/2 cup roasted pecans or walnuts (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Roll the kale leaves up like a cigar and chop them into thin strips. Add the kale to a large bowl along with the lemon juice, vinegar, honey, olive oil and 1/4 cup avocado. Use your fingers to work the oil mixture into the kale leaves, for 2-3 minutes, or until the leaves start to wilt and are reduced by half. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
- Top each serving with chopped avocado, goat cheese, cranberries, onion, and nuts, if desired. Drizzle with a little extra olive oil, if desired.
Notes
- Any type of kale will work here, I just love how the purple looks.
