Course: Others

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch tuscan kale, ribs and large stems removed; cut into bite sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 ounces smoked salmon, cut into bite sized pieces
  • 1 large ripe blood orange, cut into 8 segments
  • 2 pieces of bread, toasted well
  • 1 large ripe avocado, cut in half and pitted

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place kale in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, and massage olive oil into the kale leaves for a few minutes. Add salt and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Toast bread until very hard but not burnt. Carefully scoop out the avocado onto the toast (I use 1/2 avocado per side of bread) and gently smash it down using a fork. Cut into small bite sized pieces. I found it easiest to do this with a pizza cutter.
  3. Top salad with smoked salmon, orange segments, and croutons.
  4. Add dressing after serving, if desired.
  5. *I found this salad had enough flavor from the ingredients alone, but a squeeze of fresh orange or lemon added a nice POP of citrus if you're looking to wake it up a little. Just be sure to dress it right before serving, or it will get soggy.
