No reviews

A simple, creamy, and nutrient-dense salad where avocado naturally coats tender kale, creating a rich texture without heavy dressing. Bright lemon, olive oil, and toasted pine nuts balance everything with freshness and crunch.

 

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups kale, chopped finely
  • Juice of 1 small lemon
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 avocados, peeled and pitted
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine the chopped kale, lemon juice, salt, and olive oil. Toss well to lightly coat and soften the kale.
  • Add the avocados to the bowl.
  • Using a spoon or clean hands, gently mix and mash the avocado into the kale until it becomes creamy and evenly distributed.
  • Fold in the toasted pine nuts.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Massaging the kale helps reduce bitterness and improves texture.
  • For extra flavor, add garlic powder, chili flakes, or a splash of balsamic vinegar.
  • Best enjoyed fresh, as avocado will brown over time.
