Nutrient-Dense Salad

The two star ingredients: MICROGREENS and KALE.⁣
⁣
Microgreens are young mini greens packed with even more vitamins, minerals and antioxidants than the full-grown greens. Their mild flavor makes it easy to add to all kinds of foods like salads, smoothies, lettuce wraps, egg dishes and dips.⁣
⁣
Still not a kale fan? I get it! It’s definitely an acquired taste. But with all the vitamin A and C, fiber, antioxidants and omega 3s, it’s definitely worth giving another try.⁣
⁣
Here are some ways to do it:⁣
⁣
1. Remove the fibrous spine and cut leaf into thin strips⁣
⁣
2. Add small amounts to foods you already make like soups, stews, chili, stir-fry and one-pot meals⁣
⁣
3. Before adding kale to a salad, massage it well with lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil to break down the fibers and make it less bitter⁣
⁣
4. Add avocado to balance the flavor⁣
⁣
5. Mix it in with milder salads greens you like⁣
