Instructions

  1. For the salad: Place chopped kale in a large serving bowl. Top with salt and pepper. Massage kale by grabbing large handfuls and squeezing gently until the kale is darker in color, softened, and more fragrant. Repeat several times, grabbing fresh handfuls of kale as you go. This will make the kale more tender and less bitter - don't skip this step!
  2. Add shaved Brussels sprouts to bowl, fluffing the strands with your fingers to separate the shreds. Toss to combine Brussels sprouts with the kale.
  3. For the dressing: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together all dressing ingredients. Taste and adjust the seasoning as desired. Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight jar for up to 1 week.
  4. To assemble the salad: Drizzle two-thirds of the dressing over the top and toss to combine.
  5. Sprinkle salad with Parmesan, cranberries, and sunflower seeds over the top. Toss lightly. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste and add as much extra dressing as you like. Enjoy immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
