Made with honey and orange juice, this crunchy salad is surprisingly sweet.

Don't really like Kale but this recipe made it taste pretty darn good. Used some cut up oranges in it which tasted really good. I'm going to add some seeds or nuts next time. Maybe some craisins but it was good as written. I didn't use all the dressing though. Read More

I used powdered ginger. My husband and I liked it. I think the other reviewer's idea of the adding mandarin oranges and seeds/sliced almonds would make it even better. If I make this again I will try those. I think my kids would like it better with those changes too. As is it was not a hit with the kiddos. Read More

Good flavor profile, maybe sesame oil next time instead of vegetable oil. Used sliced almonds and mandarin oranges. Read More

My daughter and I enjoyed this salad. The main reason that it is not 5 stars is because it is pretty basic with just dressing and kale. However it is definitely a solid base to build off. We really liked the dressing. I did have to alter it because my daughter is allergic to soy. The internet recommended substituting the soy sauce for balsamic vinegar and some salt which worked well. Next time I will definitely experiment with added items such as apple goat cheese nuts berries (craisins etc.). My husband who hates kale did not like this salad but that was no surprise. Read More

Fabulous dressing! Salad needs punch- I added fresh red grapefruit segments, chopped red onion and sautéed almond slivers. My husband who doesn’t particularly like kale- really enjoyed this. Read More

I wasn t sure how I d like this salad being all kale but it was fantastic. I used ginger paste that I make in my Vitamix which I freeze instead of powdered ginger. I also added raisins roasted chopped walnuts and mandarin orange slices. And lastly I add more dressing. Read More
