  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

  1. Wash and thoroughly dry the kale. Place the chopped kale in a large bowl.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and maple syrup, if using. Season with salt and pepper.

  • Massaging the kale helps break down the tough fibers, making the salad more enjoyable to eat.
  • Taste the dressing before putting it on the kale; adjust lemon or maple syrup to your preference.
  • You can add grilled chicken or chickpeas for extra protein.
