Sweet Kale Salad with Poppyseed Dressing

Sweet Kale Salad with Poppyseed Dressing blends chopped kale, shredded Brussels sprouts, and broccoli slaw with dried cranberries and roasted pepitas. The creamy, sweet-tart poppy seed dressing made with yogurt, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, avocado oil, and poppy seeds adds brightness complementing the crunchy, hearty vegetables and nutty seeds.

Description

The salad mixes curly chopped kale, shredded Brussels sprouts, and broccoli slaw, combining robust greens with a crunchy texture. Dried cranberries add sweetness while roasted and salted pepitas contribute a nutty crunch. The dressing features plain Greek yogurt, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, avocado oil, poppy seeds, and salt, balancing sweet, tangy, and creamy elements.

Half the dressing is tossed with the salad to coat the greens lightly, with more added if desired. Leftover dressing can be reserved for future use. The salad is fresh, crisp, and flavorful, suitable as a side dish or light lunch.
