Ingredients
Salad
- 4-5 cups kale finely shredded
- 1 1/2 cups watermelon cut into small cubes
- 1 1/2 cups blueberries
- 1 carrot
- 1 bell pepper (I used half yellow, half purple)
- 1/4 cup walnuts chopped
- 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
Dressing
- 3 tablespoons champagne vinegar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons walnut oil (or olive oil)
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1/4 teaspoon mustard powder
Instructions
- Remove the stems, and finely shred the kale.
- Mix all the dressing ingredients together, making sure the honey is dissolved and mixed in.
- Pour the dressing over the kale, and massage it in to soften the kale.
- Place the kale in the refrigerator to keep cold while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
- Finely slice the peppers, and cube the watermelon. I used a vegetable peeler to cut the carrot into long thin strands. Toss the fruit and vegetables with the kale.
- Toast the chopped walnuts and pumpkin seeds in a skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally to keep from burning. Add the nuts over the salad directly prior to serving to keep them crunchy.
