Ingredients

  • 1 Bunch Fresh Kale finely chopped
  • 1 lb Brussel Sprouts finely chopped
  • ½ Cup Dried Cranberries
  • ¾ Cup Chopped Pecans

Maple Dressing

  • ¾ Cup White Vinegar
  • ½ Cup Maple Syrup
  • ½ Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Mustard Powder
  • ½ Cup Olive Oil

Instructions

  • Wash the kale, the pat dry with some paper towels. Cut out the thick stem from the leaf the roll up and cut into very thin slices.
  • Cut the stalk off the end of each brussel sprout, then cut in half and slice thin like the kale.
  • Add to a large mixing bowl with the dried cranberries and chopped pecans.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, add the dressing ingredients and mix well with a whisk, until totally blended and nothing remains on the bottom of the bowl.
  • Pour over the kale salad and mix well.

Notes

Do not skip washing the kale, it can be very sandy and you don't want a gritty salad.
