Lately I shop in my garden daily for my dinner meal. Its bursting at the seams with Dean doing most of the gardening. My secret recipe giver sent over this recipe so I had to give it a try. This recipe is another hit with the family. Kale is one of those leafy greens that most people like as a backdrop to the main ingredient. This recipe highlights Kale and does an amazing job giving it just the right companions.
Kale Sensation Salad
- 1Tablespoons lemon juice (or 1 whole lemon)
- 2 Tablespoons shallot, minced (I used 1/2 red onion and two green onions) use which ever variety you have on hand
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 bunches kale, torn or chopped into bite size pieces
- 1/4 c parmesan cheese
- 5 clove garlic, minced (maybe 6 cloves) definately not optional
Put the clean torn kale into a serving bowl. Mix everything except the parmesan in a separate bowl. Add the dressing on top and then sprinkle with the cheese.
Let it sit in the fridge for a few hours before serving. Others will tell you it helps to meld the flavors together. I'll tell you it just taste best that way.
Enjoy good food,
