Even Greener Salad

Ingredients:

• Kale

• Arugula

• Pistachios

• Blanched Broccoli

• Feta crumbles (omit or sub if vegan) 

• Avocado

• Oil

• Salt

• Balsamic Vinegar (or other floral vinegar of choice)

• Instructions:

  • boil a pot of water

  • cut the broccoli into the size you like I suggest the smaller the better

  • blanch the broccoli for less than a minute so it maintains its crunch and turns vibrant green

  • cool the broccoli in a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking

  • cut spine out of kale and then cut into size pieces you like, I suggest cutting every inch, and put in a bowl

  • drizzle a small amount, maybe a tablespoon each of both olive oil and vinegar + a sprinkle of salt over kale leaves

  • massage the kale leaves with your hands until well mixed and all leaves seem to be coated and the leaves aren’t so tough

  • add arugula to the bowl and toss together (don't massage the arugula or it will get slimy)

  • transfer to individual bowls and top greens with broccoli, feta crumbles, nut or seed of choice pistachios suggested, and diced avocado.

  • Enjoy!
