Kale Citrus Salad


  • Author: Meagan
  • Total Time: 15 Minutes

Description

I found this on the Pioneer Woman and like everything kale in our lives…this is a favorite that we’ve already made a few times.  A very flexible/simple salad (with or without the jalapeño, depending on your crowd) that is also super amazing with Sweet and Spicy Pecans – enjoy!


Ingredients

Scale

Kale Citrus Salad

1 bunch kale, stalks removed and leaves chopped or torn (I’ve used curly, black and baby kale and all were equally tasty)

1 jalapeño, seeded and thinly sliced

3 Clementines or mandarins, peeled and sliced

1/2+ c. crumbled goat cheese

Dressing

1/4 c. orange juice AND 2 T. olive oil

1 clove of garlic, minced

1 t. honey (or sugar)

salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

1 T. Greek yogurt (or sour cream)


Instructions

To make the dressing, add the orange juice, oil, garlic and honey to a well sealed container or jar and give it a good shake to combine, then season to taste with salt and pepper.  Add the yogurt last and shake until the dressing is well mixed and creamy.

Add the kale, jalapeño and orange slices to a large bowl, drizzle on half the dressing and toss, then add in the goat cheese and as much dressing as is still needed and toss again.  If you’re using curly kale, you can dress the salad about 15 minutes before serving, but with black kale (or even baby kale), serve it straight away after tossing with the dressing and dive in!
