Instructions
The Best Kale Salad
Massage and cut or tear kale in a large strainer for about 2 minutes. After cutting, wash kale, dry and set aside.
Add dressing on top or lightly combine. Add toppings and toss to combine.
Enjoy!
Tahini Dressing
In a medium-size bowl add all the dressing ingredients and whisk until fully combined and smooth.
Notes
For an extra delicious salad, toast your pepitas beforehand in about 2 teaspoons of oil over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes. Shake occasionally, until pepitas begin to pop. Season generously with salt, pepper, and paprika.
