We had fresh kale salad at a wonderful quaint restaurant in Santa Fe. The kale was cut in narrow strips and served with olive oil and vinegar and tossed with pine nuts and feta. It was wonderful. Thanks for the idea of adding dried cherries.

Great salad! Used what I had on hand (which didn’t include parsnips or carrots– used cukes and a half a Fuji apple instead). Perfect lunch (characterized as “huge!” by a friend). Worked for me; filling, refreshing, satisfying.

Hi Roni, My family does eat kale on a regular basis, but cooked so i had to try this salad. All i can say is yummy! I made a few substitutions with what i had on hand. I roasted some fresh beets and added them to the salad and i used dried cherries instead of the cranberries. It was awesome and i am eating the leftovers for lunch. Thanks for the great healthy idea.

Just pinned this for when my CSA starts coming in. From what I hear, I’ll be getting more than my fair share of kale!

I think kale is one of those things that takes a lot of it’s edibility from what is served WITH it. Completely alone? It’s a little too…”earthy” for me. I once sat a bowl next to me and forced myself to eat it, but that was a … once thing. I don’t have parsnips but I think I’ll make a variation of this with what I’ve got. I need to eat more salad. I know I’m so iron and vit. D deficient. *snooze*

I eat the raw kale salad from Whole Foods and I love it! I don’t, however, love the price! Will definitely make this one!

Never had raw kale. You’ve inspired me to try it now. This looks delicious!

That looks so good, I can’t wait to try it! I have been making a recipe lately for raw kale salad with poppy seed crusted butternut and pomegranate seeds. You wilt the lettuce with lemon juice and it is so perfect, just the right lettuce-y tenderness… and no waiting! I love raw kale!!!!
