winter citrus kale salad

Servings: 2 large or 4 small salads

Ingredients

for the citrus vinaigrette:

  • 1 small shallot finely minced
  • cup champagne or white wine vinegar
  • 3 tablespoon fresh grapefruit juice
  • ¼ cup fresh orange juice
  • ½ teaspoon orange zest
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste

for the salad:

  • one large bunch of kale leaves torn from stem and roughly chopped
  • 1 orange segmented
  • 1 grapefruit segmented
  • cup sliced almonds or pecans toasted
  • ¼ cup crumbled goat cheese

Instructions

To make the vinaigrette:

  • Combine all ingredients in a mason jar and shake vigorously, until thoroughly combined, about 1 minute.

To assemble salad:

  • Add kale to a large bowl and drizzle ¼-1/2 cup of dressing over it. I would start with ¼ cup and increase as needed. You will have leftover dressing.
  • Massage the dressing into the kale leaves with your fingers.
  • Once thoroughly massaged, top with segmented orange, grapefruit, almonds, and goat cheese.
  • Serve and enjoy!
