Strawberry Kale Salad
• Massaging kale improves texture and reduces bitterness. • Add dressing gradually so the salad does not become soggy. • This salad holds up well for a few hours, making it good for meal prep if stored without dressing. • Swap almonds for walnuts or sunflower seeds for variety. Health Benefits: Kale provides fiber, vitamin K, vitamin C, and antioxidants that support heart and immune health. Strawberries add vitamin C and polyphenols that support cellular protection and inflammation balance. Nuts and seeds provide healthy fats and plant-based protein that support satiety and blood sugar stability.
