Kale Salad
If you have ever tried to eat raw kale, even raw baby kale, you know that the texture leaves a lot to be desired. I have heard it called "cardboard" and "inedible". The trick to eating raw kale is to massage it for approximately 3-5 minutes after the dressing has been applied to it. This breaks up the tough fibers and gives kale a softer consistency. Here is a video where you can see Dr. Hyman himself demonstrate this process: https://vimeo.com/59538591. Yields 4 servings.
Chop kale finely and put in large bowl
Chop olives
Sprinkle olive oil, zest of lemon, juice of lemon, garlic and salt over kale and massage by squeezing kale to tenderize it
Toast pine nuts and sprinkle on salad
Add olives and pepper to taste
