Ingredients

  • 1.5 bunches Dinosaur kale

Dressing

  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ground pepper to taste
  • 2 handfuls dried cranberries or cherries

Walnut Parmesan

  • 1 cup toasted or raw walnuts
  • 1 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • ½ tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Start by destemming and ripping off the kale leaves; I shred them by hand and really give them a good massage before throwing them into the bowl to soften them up. Once this is all chopped, continue giving the kale a good massage to break down the roughness ( This seriously makes kale SO much better). Set aside.
  • Mix all your dressing ingredients in a food processor or a Blendtec twister jar and process until smooth.  You can pour this over your kale and give it a good mix. Set aside.
  • Clean out your twister jar or food processor and throw in your Walnut Parmesan mix. Process just until it's a course meal. 
  • Mix your Salad/dressing with your walnut Parmesan and throw the cranberries in.  It's best to let this salad marinate for 15 to 30 minutes and then serve.
