Apple Kale Salad with Lemon Poppy Seed Vinaigrette

Kale is loaded with vitamins and fibre, so it’s no wonder everyone’s looking to include this powerhouse vegetable in their diet. We love it in this bright and citrusy lemon poppyseed vinaigrette. The key trick to a great kale salad is to let the kale leaves marinate for half an hour in the dressing before serving, this helps soften the kale and reduce its bitterness.

Prep Time

Instructions

For the lemon poppy seed vinaigrette:

Step 1

Place all the dressing ingredients, except for the poppy seeds, in a blender and blend on high until well combined.

Step 2

Stir in poppy seeds and season with salt and pepper to taste. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a month.

For the salad:

Step 1

Wash and dry the kale, then remove the ribs. Cut the leaves into thin, small pieces.

Step 2

Place the chopped kale into a large bowl and genorously drizzle the poppyseed dressing over top. Then, using your hands, gently massage the dressing into the kale leaves. Add more dressing if you so desire, then place the dressed kale in the fridge to marinate for at least half an hour. This will help to soften the kale and reduce its bitterness.

Step 3

When the kale is ready, remove from the fridge and toss in the chopped apple, raisins, and toasted sunflower seeds. Serve immediately.
