Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups kale, chopped
- 1/2 cup blackberries
- 1/2 cup raspberries
- 1/3 cup blueberries
- 3/4 cup strawberries, hulled and halved
- 1/2 avocado, diced
- 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup Orange Poppy Seed Dressing
Instructions
- Wash and finely chop kale. Drizzle with olive oil and add a pinch of salt. Using your hands, massage the kale until it softens up a little bit.
- Add berries, avocado and feta. Add dressing to taste and gently toss to coat.
- Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve.
Notes
- Don't skip massaging the kale. It's essential for kale that's more tender and less bitter!
- This salad is also good with balsamic vinaigrette or a sweet vinaigrette such as blush wine or raspberry vinaigrette.
- This salad is easily doubled or tripled for a crowd.
- To make ahead, toss together all ingredients except for avocado and cover, refrigerated, until ready to serve. Add avocado just before serving.
- If you're making ahead, you may need to add a little bit more dressing just before serving since the kale tends to absorb some of it as it sits.
