Ingredients  

For the Salad

  • 2 cups kale stems removed, chopped
  • 2 cups arugala
  • 2 cups mixed lettuce
  • 1 large apple cored, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 1/2 cup pecans chopped
  • 4 servings protein of choice optional

For the Dressing

  • 1/4 cup avocado oil or olive oil
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions 

  1. In a large bowl, add the chopped kale. Drizzle with a little oil and a pinch of salt.
  2. Massage the kale with your hands for 2–3 minutes until tender and slightly wilted. This improves texture and digestibility.
  3. Add the arugula and mixed lettuce. Toss to combine.
  4. Fold in sliced apple, cranberries, feta, and chopped pecans.
  5. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the dressing ingredients until well combined.
  6. Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving and toss gently to coat evenly.
  7. Serve on its own or with your protein of choice. Enjoy!

Notes

For best texture, store salad and dressing separately if not serving immediately. Keeps in the fridge for 1–2 days in an airtight container.
