Notes
- Note: you’re welcome to use less lemon juice but I prefer mine on the tangier side as the acid helps break down the hearty kale. Additionally, if you’re not concerned with calories, feel free to add more olive oil.
- If you’re not a fan of anchovies you can try substituting roasted sesame tahini instead.
