Easy Kale Salad Recipe

This list wouldn't be complete without a fresh kale salad. It's delightfully crunchy and loaded with vegetables, making it ideal as a side or a summer lunch. We also love the homemade tangy lemon dressing.

Ingredients

  • 1 small bunch kale chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 large clove garlic smashed

Instructions

  • Place the rinsed kale into a salad spinner to remove any excess water or just pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.
  • Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and whisk thoroughly until it forms an emulsion (about 30 seconds). Add the smashed garlic and leave for 1 to 2 minutes to steep. Remove the garlic and discard.
  • Pour the dressing over the kale and toss several times to coat evenly. Serve and enjoy.
