Kale Salad

I recently read about massaging Kale in one of my food magazines.  At first I thought it was weird, but after I gave it a go, I became a believer.  The process of massaging makes the kale considerably less tough and more appealing to those who normally can't stand the super green veggie.

Here's what you'll need:

1 tablespoon Olive Oil
4 cups of Kale
2 tablespoons of Walnuts
1 medium sized apple (I used Ambrosia in this salad)
2 teaspoons of Aged Balsamic Vinegar
1 teaspoon of honey
1/2 teaspoon of Celtic Sea Salt
1 cup of Strawberries

Step 1: Wash your hands!

Remove the tough stems from the Kale
 
Step 2: Wash your hands again, you are about to start massaging!

Add the Olive Oil, salt and walnuts to the leaves and start massaging
Continue to massage until the Kale is roughly half its original size 
Step 3: Wash your hands and..

 Add the rest of the ingredients, toss, and serve

Enjoy!
