- 1 teaspoon stone-ground Dijon mustard
- Pinch of kosher salt

Instructions
- Usually I just take a handful or 2 of kale when I make a salad but I was curious what 2 and ½ cups looked like so I weighed it out. Then I chopped it into fine ribbons and started on the dressing.2 ½ cups of raw kale
- Using the smoothie attachment (A Magic Bullet would work) I added half the walnuts, lemon juice, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and a pinch of salt.1 oz 28g walnuts, halved, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, Pinch of kosher salt, 1 teaspoon stone-ground Dijon mustard
