This was delicious. My husband doesn't like kale but liked this. Massaging the kale first gets rid of the bitter taste. I substituted walnuts and Parmesan based on what I had on hand. I agree it's too salty as is, but still a great recipe.
Colorful salad with a bit of a kick to it. I decreased the salt, as well.
I thought this was a little too salty for our taste. Next time I would cut back on the salt. But everything was a wonderful combination.
I make this recipe all the time, although generally without the apples and pepitas. I love it! Massaging the kale makes it much less tough and let's it soak in the oil better. I use kosher salt since it's a little coarser and really stands out. The perfect healthy, tangy, salty dish.
Very Delicious!!! I don't use pumpkin seeds because i never have them.
Wonderful salad! Great way to use kale. Love the sweet crunchy apples with the kale and the feta adds a bit of saltiness to it. Can't go wrong with that sweet and salty combo.
Been getting a lot of kale and this recipe is one of our favorite ways to use it as we usually have the ingredients on hand. When we don't have pumpkin seeds in hand another salty ingredient such as cashews or other nuts has worked fine.
Just a quick question... what does massaging the kale do?
love the salad, but i used pumpkin seeds and next time i will try something else.
Very nice touch. Massaging the Kale has a special effect.
