While kale is incredibly low in calories, it is one of the most nutrient-dense foods, containing powerful antioxidants, such as beta-carotene and vitamin C.
Ingredients:
5 Bunches Black Tuscan Kale
1 tablespoon Red Pepper Flakes
¾ cup Dried Blueberry
2 cups Lemon Vinaigrette (below)
Salt and Pepper
Directions:
Clean stem off kale and chop in to ½ in strips.
Toss cleaned and chopped kale with ½ cup of lemon vinaigrette. Lightly massage the dressing into the kale. This should be done at least 8 hours before you serve kale; overnight is preferred.
