Kale Salad

You Will Need

10 oz bag ready-to-eat kale pieces
4 to 5 baby beets, peeled and steamed (look for Organics brand)
1/2 cup raisins or reduced-sugar Craisins
1/2 cup walnut pieces
1 apple, cored and cubed
1/2 cup oil and vinegar salad dressing (see what to do)

Serves 4 people as a main dish. Save leftovers for lunch the next day.  Use as a side salad for large groups; serve with grilled fish or chicken.

What To Do

In a large salad bowl, toss raisins (or Craisins), walnut pieces, and apple cubes. Slice beets into chunks and add to bowl.  Add kale pieces while removing thick stems.

Create 1/2 cup salad dressing by mixing together 2 parts olive oil and 1 part lemon in white balsamic vinegar (or another favorite vinegar). Pour over salad and toss everything together.
