Ingredients

5 cups Kale Leaves, washed and chopped
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Garlic, minced
1/4 tsp Kosher Salt
1/8 tsp Cracked Black Pepper
1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
3 tbsp Pine Nuts (Any nut works)

Instructions

Remove the rib and stem from the kale leaves. Chop into bite-sized pieces.
Add the chopped kale to a colander and rinse with warm water.
Transfer the washed kale to a colander to drain or a salad spinner and spin.
Transfer the kale to a large bowl.
If you desire, toast the nuts in a skillet on medium heat until fragrant, stirring often. Set aside. Toasting nuts always brings out the flavor, but it isn't necessary.
To a bowl, add olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. Whisk until combined and pour over salad.
Using clean hands, gently massage the dressing into the salad mixture.
Top the salad with parmesan cheese and toasted nuts. Serve and enjoy!
