Ingredients
- 8 cups kale $0.99, shredded, loosely packed, about one bunch
- 1 whole wheat pita bread $0.25
- 1/2 Tbsp olive oil $0.08
- 1/4 cup walnuts $0.57, chopped
- 1/3 cup golden raisins $0.40
- 1/3 cup Parmesan Cheese $0.74, shredded or grated
- 1/3 cup champagne vinaigrette $0.80
Instructions
- Pull the kale leaves from the stems. Take a handful at a time in one fist, then carefully pull back your fingers one inch at a time as you slice the bunched kale into fine shreds. Place the shredded kale in a colander and rinse well. Allow the kale to dry as you prepare the remaining ingredients.
- Cut the pita into 1-inch triangles. Place the pita triangles in a small bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss the pita until it is well coated in oil. Heat a small skillet over medium, then once the skillet is hot, add the pita. Cook and stir the pita until they are toasted and crunchy.
- Remove the pita from the skillet, then add the chopped walnuts. Stir and cook the walnuts in the dry skillet for 1-2 minutes, or just until they begin to smell toasty. Remove them from the skillet immediately to prevent burning.
- To assemble the salad, place the washed and dried kale in a large bowl. Add the toasted pita, walnuts, Parmesan, and golden raisins. Pour the champagne vinaigrette over top, then toss until everything is coated in dressing and Parmesan.
- Serve the salad immediately, or let it rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the dressing to slightly soften the kale.
