Kale is a delicious and healthy option for a green salad. Kale is one of the highest sources of protein in the plant world. It is also loaded with lots of antioxidants, including vitamins A, C, K, Calcium and is a great source of iron. Kale also helps lower cholesterol levels and helps to detoxify the liver. Because it is high in fiber it doesn’t get soggy quickly like other dark salad greens. And lastly it tastes delicious especially with the roasted beets and goat cheese. The Fig dressing is one of my absolute favorites and pairs nicely with the kale, goat cheese and beets. This version of kale salad is an absolute must try recipe. I would love to hear how you like it. Please post your comments below.
