Kale Salad With Apples and Toasted Almonds
Kale—it's the superfood we hear so much about, and for good reason. This salad strikes the perfect balance of sweet, tart, and creamy flavors. Kale is a versatile green that holds its own in just about any dish. If you're a fan of chips but want something "healthier," our kale chips are a great option. Or, try it in a hearty soup like our best vegetarian soup with kale. This vibrant green even shines in paninis, like a turkey and mozzarella sandwich with kale pesto. Kale is the perfect salad green because it doesn't wilt or get soggy—no one likes a soggy salad! The combination of sweet apple, toasted nuts, and crumbly cheese with kale is irresistibly satisfying. We’re confident you’ll love this one!
