1 Video | Photo: Massaged Kale Salad Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 bunch kale (black kale is especially good), stalks removed and discarded, leaves thinly sliced
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
- Kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons honey
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 mango, diced small (about 1 cup)
- Small handful toasted pepitas (pumpkin seeds), about 2 rounded tablespoons
Directions
In large serving bowl, add the kale, half of lemon juice, a drizzle of oil and a little kosher salt. Massage until the kale starts to soften and wilt, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside while you make the dressing.
In a small bowl, whisk remaining lemon juice with the honey and lots of freshly ground black pepper. Stream in the 1/4 cup of oil while whisking until a dressing forms, and you like how it tastes.
Pour the dressing over the kale, and add the mango and pepitas. Toss and serve.

Addictive! After the 1st try I've been using sunflower seeds, as I always have them on hand. Any roasted seed/nut will be great. I also add thinly sliced red onions and allow them to sweeten in the dressing for 30 mins. Perfect!

i've recently developed a love affair with kale and this recipe is just one more reason to profess my love of the dark leafy green. the soft texture of the mango pairs beautifully with the firm kale and the dressing is lovely. just the right amount of sweet & tart. my kids love it almost as much as i do!
