This recipe could serve a few different purposes: it could give you a great way to use up an excess of kale, it could give you a great alternative to yet another mixed greens salad, or it could give kale a whole new flavor profile in your head that you just can’t get over because you love it so much. Or, like Neil, you could really dislike it, which is fine. Not everyone can share my love of all things green and funny looking that are meant to be ingested. But, really, I did love this salad.
