Best Warm Kale Salad Ever Recipes

Steps:

• Place kale in a large serving bowl; add 1 teaspoon olive oil and 2 pinches salt. Gently massage the oil and salt into kale. Set aside to allow kale to soften, about 10 minutes.
• Combine 1/4 cup olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper in a plastic or glass container with a lid. Cover container and vigorously shake until dressing is light yellow and evenly combined.
• Layer carrots, roasted corn, tortilla chips, almonds, and smoked cheese on top of kale. Drizzle dressing over salad. Mix salad using tongs to evenly distribute. Gently stir eggs into salad.

Steps:

• Whisk olive oil, balsamic vinegar, mustard, honey, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes together to make the vinaigrette.
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Reserve 3 tablespoons bacon fat in the skillet.
• Cook shallots in the bacon fat until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel.
• Add kale and red peppers to the skillet and saute until warmed through but not wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Place kale, red peppers, and garlic in a serving bowl. Top with the vinaigrette, diced bacon, shallots, walnuts, and Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• In a large non-stick skillet, melt butter and saute onions, pepper, and mushrooms until browned around edges.
• Add balsamic vinegar to skillet, and let it cook out the vinegar a bit, just a good 5 second.
• Reduce heat to low, and add in big bunch of fresh, chopped kale and garlic. Mix the contents until the kale is fully coated with the butter, balsamic, and veggies. The kale should just be slightly warm, not wilted.
• Transfer the contents of the skillet onto a plate. Grate fresh asiago (I prefer the big shreds) over the top, if desired.
• Enjoy.
