Ingredients

For the Salad:

  • 2 bunches Kale stems removed and chopped
  • 1 cup Goji Berries or dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup Pumpkin Seeds or sunflower seeds
  • 1 cup Blueberries fresh, rinsed
  • 1 medium Avocado ripe, diced
  • 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • to taste Salt
  • to taste Pepper

Instructions

Instructions:

  • Start by washing the kale thoroughly under cold water. If you’re using whole kale bunches, remove the stems and center ribs, then chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces. If using baby kale, simply rinse and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the chopped kale, goji berries (or dried cranberries), pumpkin seeds (or your choice of nuts), and fresh blueberries.
  • Carefully peel, pit, and dice the ripe avocado. Add the diced avocado to the salad, being gentle to avoid mashing it.
  • Drizzle the salad with extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remember, you can always adjust the seasoning later!
  • Using salad tongs, gently toss all the ingredients together until everything is well-combined and coated with the olive oil. Serve immediately for the freshest taste.

Equipment

  • Cutting Board
  • Sharp knife
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Measuring Cups
  • Salad tongs

Notes

  • Keep the dressing separate until serving to maintain kale's crunchiness.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
  • Add a squeeze of lemon juice to avocado to prevent browning.
