Raw Kale Salad (with Avocado)

Raw Kale Salad

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch kale, stems removed and torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/2 ripe avocado
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • (optional-feta or parmesan cheese, olive oil, toasted nuts and or seeds like sesame or sunflower)

Directions

(The lemon actually breaks down or “cooks” the kale making this leafy green much more digestible in it’s raw form)

Place the kale in a large bowl. Using clean hands, squeeze the avocado half into the bowl and continue massaging the avocado into the kale until the leaves relax and are all coated in avocado—about five minutes.
2.Squeeze in the half of lemon juice, season with salt and pepper and then toss to coat. Serve as is or top with other yummy salad toppings.
