Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds new potatoes or baby potatoes, washed and quartered
- 1 1/2 bunches kale, stems discarded and leaves roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup homemade or store-bought basil pesto
- 1/2 English cucumber, quartered and sliced
- 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 large lemon, juiced, plus more to taste
- kosher salt

Instructions
- Cook the potatoes: Add the potatoes to a large saucepan and cover with water. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil until potatoes are cooked, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, massage the kale: Place kale into your serving bowl and add 2 tablespoons of pesto. Massage the leaves until dark green and tender, approximately 2 minutes.
- Mix, dress, and serve the salad: Add the potatoes, cucumber, red onion and tomatoes to the kale. Add the remaining pesto and lemon juice. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss until the dressing is evenly distributed. Taste and adjust seasoning and lemon juice to your preference. Serve.
