Beetroot, Kale and Orange Salad
So fresh and healthy, this Beetroot, Kale and Orange Salad totally blew me away the first time I tried it. I know it sounds kind of an odd combination, but it really, really works!

Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons pumpkin seeds
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 teaspoons apple cider vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
- zest of 2 oranges
- salt to taste
- 200 g kale sliced
- 2 oranges peeled and sliced
- 8 small cooked beetroots (or 4 large ones), sliced
- 300 g ball of mozzarella ripped into rough chunks
Instructions
- Heat a small frying pan on a medium heat and toast the pumpkin seeds for a few minutes, taking care not to burn them. Tip them onto a plate to cool.
- Mix together the honey, olive oil, vinegar, orange zest and salt in a large bowl. Add the kale and massage the dressing into the kale using your fingers for 2 minutes. By this time the kale will be softer (and much nicer to eat raw!).
- Tip the kale out onto a serving dish and add the mozzarella, beetroot and orange slices. Scatter over the pumpkin seeds and drizzle over any remaining dressing.
