Raw Massaged Kale Detox Salad

Ingredients

  • 3 bunches of organic curly leaf kale, washed and fully dried
  • 2 granny smith apples, diced into small cubes
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 quarter inch slice of red onion, minced
  • 1/2 cup raisins, chopped (chopped finely after measuring)
  • 3/4 cup organic extra virgin olive oil
  • 3/4 cup organic apple cider vinegar

Adapted from Cynthia Lair’s Massaged Kale Salad with Apples and Gorgonzola
Makes 1 large bowl of salad

  1. De-stem kale by holding the stem with one hand, and pulling off the leaves with the other. Or you can cheat like I do and cut the leaves off the stem with kitchen shears.
  2. To cut up the kale, tightly roll up a few kale leaves together. Slice very thinly, creating ribbons.
  3. Place all the kale in a large bowl (may need two bowls to do this, but after you massage it the size will go down a bit). Add the sea salt. Massage the salt into the kale for 5 minutes.
  4. Add diced apples, minced red onion, chopped raisins, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar. Thoroughly mix together.

Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator. Salad will last in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
