Kale Salad with Green Goddess Dressing
Rated 3.6 stars by 5 users
Kale is absolutely abundant right now, and one of my favorite ways to use it is in a big, virtuous-feeling kale salad, loaded with crunchy fall vegetables, plus some chickpeas and shredded chicken for protein. This salad is exceedingly versatile. Vegetarian? Skip the chicken! Looking for crunch? Try adding a handful of toasted walnuts! Want to highlight the creaminess? Add half an avocado! This salad holds well over time, so it makes a great packed lunch, but don’t overlook its dinner potential either.

Rinse the kale, and then massage with a pinch of salt and a squirt of olive oil to break down the fibrous leaves.
