This dish is a cross between a pizza and a flatbread, sans the sauce. Hearty and filling, it’s a great appetizer for a party or a crowd. I brought it to a get-together recently, and it was devoured by both vegans and non-vegans. I put kale on only half of the dish, since I know some non-vegans that are afraid of kale! But even non-kale lovers will find this dish…

Does the world need another massaged kale salad recipe? Without a doubt! One can’t have enough kale. Even my kids have fallen under its spell. They love Brendan Brazier’s sour cream kale chips, but they also love this salad. Couple weeks ago I invited a friend over for dinner and made this salad to accompany our mains.

It wasn’t too long ago that I found myself spending my afternoons gorging myself with grease laden snacks and passed out on the couch from the “crash” I got as a result of those fatty foods. Grocery stores are filled with enticing processed foods composed of ingredients that we can barely make out. But the pictures that are plastered on each package are so drool-worthy, we can’t help but snatch…
