Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Whisk together the vinaigrette ingredients in a small bowl and let stand for a few minutes.
  2. Put the kale in a large bowl and pour most of the dressing on top. Use your hands to gently massage the dressing into the kale leaves. Add the beets to the bowl and toss to coat. If needed, add the rest of the dressing. Alternatively, reserve it for individual serving dishes.
  3. Sprinkle the salad with pistachios and red pepper, if using, and serve.
