Raw Kale and Avocado Salad


This is just one of those dishes that hits the spot, especially when you are craving something...but you don't know what... It's so healthy and filling and chocked full of nutrients your body needs. this is whole, raw vegan eating at its finest...yum!!!


1/2 head kale, shredded (curly kale is the best type)
1/2 cup tomato, chopped (I've used heirloom, grape and cherry)
1/2 avocado (set some chunks aside to add after mixing)
1-2 tbsp olive oil
juice from 1/2 lemon
sea salt, to taste
18 tsp cayenne (optional)
topping options: sunflower seeds, raisins, hemp seeds, shredded carrots, sesame seeds or untoasted nori


Preparation

In mixing bowl, toss all ingredients together. Mush everything together (with your hands) to create wilted effect on kale. This makes it much tastier and easier to digest.

  2. I know it's sooo good!!! I don't normally blog much but recently I have been getting a lot of questions about my recipes, so I figured putting them all in one place was the easiest method to share them
