Kale Salad with Peanut Dressing

This is so good with the Peanut Dressing. Enjoy!

Kale Salad with Peanut Dressing (Serves 4) adapted from Chef AJ

Dressing:

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup filtered water
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1-inch fresh, peeled ginger
  • 2 tablespoons low sodium tamari
  • 4 pitted Deglet Noor dates (soaked in water if not soft)
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

Combine all dressing ingredients in a high-speed blender and process until smooth and creamy (approximately 1 minute).

Salad:

  • 2 large bunches curly kale
  • Sesame seeds

Remove stems from kale.

Chop leaves finely and place in a large bowl.

Pour 1¾ cups dressing over kale and toss to mix well. (Save leftover dressing for later use on other salads or veggies.)

Sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.

Be aware this is a high fat dressing because of the peanut butter, so make it less frequently.
