To use kale for a salad, you may want to massage the leaves. Sounds crazy, but the leaves are softer, greener and milder to taste. I often use kale as a base in salads, in this case I have added vegetables, beans, and tuna. A delicious combination of flavors!
Step: 1
Put kale in a bowl and massage until leaves soften.
Step: 2
Place avocado and tomato in a separate bowl and season with salt.
Step: 3
Combine black beans, mushrooms, and tuna with the kale. Add avocado and tomato. Add Italian dressing. Finish with black pepper.
