Ingredients
Massaged Kale
- 1 large bunch of kale stemmed, washed and spun, torn into bite-sized pieces or shredded
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Chili Maple Roasted Butternut Squash
- 1 medium butternut squash seeded, peeled, then cubed
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tsp chili flakes
Smokey Chickpeas
- 1 can of chickpeas 540 mL or 18 fl oz can, rinsed and drained well
- 3 tbsp tamari
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Toppings
- Sliced local Ontario Apples I used Macintosh here, but any tart, crisp apple would be great
- roasted pumpkin seeds
- lemon juice
Instructions
- Massage kale with olive oil, salt, and lemon juice until tender. The more you massage, the easier it will be to eat and digest (the bitterness will subside as well). Once massaged, set aside in a container and put in the fridge.*
Chili Maple Roasted Butternut Squash
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- On a lined baking sheet, combine cubed butternut squash, maple syrup, vegetable oil and chili flakes and mix well to coat evenly.
- Bake for 25 min, turn, then bake for another 10-15 until you have tender squash with lightly browned edges. If you bake too long, the maple syrup might take a burnt flavour.
- Remove from oven and let cool.
Smokey Chickpeas
- In a pan over medium heat, cook chickpeas and toss with tamari, smoked paprika, maple syrup and vegetable oil. Cook until the liquid has cooked off and soaked into the chickpeas (about 4-5 min). Transfer to a container to cool.
Toppings
- Prepare the apples by slicing or chopping and then tossing in lemon juice to prevent them from oxidizing.
- Assemble the salads by layering massaged kale, roasted butternut squash, chickpeas, sliced Ontario apples, and pumpkin seeds. If you need more dressing, add lemon juice or your favourite light vinaigrette, but everything is seasoned so really all you need is a bit of lemon juice to brighten everything up.
Notes
- *If you want the kale to last more than 3 days in the fridge, massage the kale the day you wish to eat it and store the undressed shredded kale in an airtight container.
