Looking for new ideas for salads that incorporate dark leafy greens? While traveling recently, I had dinner from the salad bar of the local Whole Foods. (Seriously, if you travel for business, WF is your best friend.) They had a delicious kale avocado salad that I tried to recreate. Mine’s a bit different, but I like it even better!

Crunchy, bright, creamy… Super healthy… What’s not to love?

Kale Avocado Salad

2c Kale, chopped

1 large carrot, shredded

1/2 ripe avocado

Juice of 1/4 lemon

1/2 teas. Apple cider vinegar

Sea salt and cracked black pepper

Mush up the avocado with the lemon juice and vinegar. Massage into kale, toss in carrot. Let sit for 20-30 mins for kale to soften.
