  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 2 tablespoons parsley adding cilantro if you prefer, fresh

Fig Raspberry Balsamic Vinaigrette

  • 1/4 cup figs quartered
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/3 cup olive oil

Notes

  • Always always massage your kale. Massaged kale can keeping the fridge for 3 days. It’s best to use a fruity/sweet salad dressing with kale to balance some of the bitterness. Making a homemade salad dressing can last for up to 3 months in your fridge, so it’s always best to try that! A good blender is all you need. The spicy lentils can be stored for a week in your fridge and used in salads, topped over soups, eggs, pasta, rice, salads or just as is. The final assembled salad makes great lunch the next day, and can stay fresh for at least 24 hours in the fridge.
