Spiralized golden beets make this crunchy kale salad marvelously unique and tasty.
Ingredients
Salad:
- 1 golden beet spiralized or grated, small
- 2 kale leaves chopped, lacinato, heads
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice fresh
- 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds raw
- 2 tablespoons hemp seed
- 1/3 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
Dressing:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 2 teaspoons coconut aminos see note*
- 1/8 teaspoon salt to taste, sea salt
Instructions
Prepare the Dressing:
- Add the ingredients for the dressing to a small blender. Blend until well-combined (note: you can also whisk the ingredients in a bowl). Set aside until ready to use.
Make the Salad
- Wash the kale well and chop the leaves off the stems. Discard the stems, then thinly slice the leaves. Place the leaves in a salad spinner, or pat them dry. Add the kale to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the lemon juice over the kale leaves, then massage the juice into the kale for 2 to 3 minutes. Allow the kale leaves to sit for 10 minutes.This process will help break down the toughness of the leaves and make it easier to chew.
- Add the dressing to the bowl with the massaged kale and toss together until incorporated. Divide the kale leaves between 2 (to 4) bowls, followed by the spiralized golden beet, pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, and parmesan cheese. Serve alongside your favorite entree.
Notes
- *you can use low-sodium soy sauce or regular liquid aminos in place of coconut aminos
