Crunchy kale salad with corn, onion and garlic. Topped with lime dressing.
After making smoothie with kale I wanted to experiment and make some more recipes with this type of veggie. I know now that we can eat raw or cooked. I like both ways. I already made pasta with kale, raw smoothie and now this kale salad.
I added some red onions, cooked frozen corn and garlic. It was very tasty. New flavor and crunchiness for me.
Kale has more crunchy taste than lettuce. I read some facts about this veggie and I found out that it’s packed with lots of nutrients. It’s good for you, me and everybody. I know that I should have more kale in my diet, as well as my children.
I make smoothies with spinach for them often, so now it’s time to make more kale smoothies.
I’ve made a lot of this kale salad, so it lasted for us two days. I can honestly say it was even better the next day. The kale sauteed overnight in sauce made with garlic and lime juice. I also gave an extra flavor to the kale salad by adding cilantro. Whole combination was a WIN-WIN situation. Yummy…

July 23, 2015 at 8:11 AMI love raw kale in salads. I think it holds the dressing much better than other salad leaves do.
