Prior to being pregnant I was kale obsessed! Ask everyone... A day would not pass without my dose of kale! Then, when I got pregnant, kale became repulsive! The smell, the taste, the texture...everything! Luckily, I am days away from delivering and have my kale taste back!! And Im craving it once again! Here is one of two most delicious kale salad recipes that I have been fixating over the last few days and loving!!!!! Make this one the day ahead for best results since the vinegar helps to break down the fibrousness of the kale overnight.
1 bunch of kale, removed from the stalk and chopped small
1/4 cup pecan halves, toasted
1 green onion, chopped
1 pear, peeled and sliced
2 TBSP balsamic vinegar
3 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
Salt and Pepper
Toss together the kale, pear, and green onions. Season with salt and pepper. Add the mixture of your balsamic and olive oil. Taste and add pecans!! Personally, I like to have it all "marry" overnight or for a few hours in the fridge to help break down the fibrousness of the kale, but it is up to you!!
