With a bit of foresight, this is an easy, wholesome, delicious, hearty salad. (Yes, there is some kale massage.) If you’d like to make more of a meal of it, crushed bruschetta, sliced cherry tomatoes and finely sliced red onion are a great addition.
- 1 bag kale
- A little olive oil, lemon juice and salt
Dressing
- 250 g cashews soaked overnight
- 4 cloves garlic
- 200 ml olive oil
- 50 ml cider vinegar
- 50 ml lemon juice
- 2 tbsp wholegrain mustard
- 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
- Pinch of salt
Before preparing the dressing, remove the kale leaves from the stalk, place in a large bowl and cover with a splash of olive oil, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Use your hands to massage for 2 minutes until the kale wilts.
Place all the ingredients for the dressing into a food processor and blend until smooth. Stir into the kale and it’s ready to serve.
