Kale Salad: My Kid’s Favorite Recipe!
If you’re looking for a way to get your kids excited about eating greens, look no further than this delicious and fun kale salad. My child absolutely loves massaging the kale, finding it both fun and funny, and he can’t get enough of this salad. Packed with flavor and nutrition, it’s a hit for both kids and adults alike! Give this kale salad a try, and it might just become your family’s favorite too!
We love to make this for the week ahead! You can prep the kale and place in the fridge with paper towels to soak up excess moisture. Salad dressing can also stay in the fridge for up to a week– just make sure to remove from the fridge 30 mins before adding to kale!Kids Cooking Tips: Kids can measure out and pour in all the ingredients. For a sensory activity, have kids “massage the kale.”
Instructions
Prep the kale by removing the ribs and cutting or tearing the leaves into small shreds.
In a large bowl, whisk together oil, lemon juice, garlic and salt to taste.
Add kale to the dressing and toss to coat.
Optional but worth it: massage the dressing into the kale with gloves.
Add grated cheese plus your choice of optional ingredients and toss.
