How to Make Kale Tasty

4. Balance kale's bitterness with sweet salad additions

In order to achieve the best salad, balance is key. Since kale has a slightly bitter flavor, this salad adds sweet elements like dried cherries and a dressing made with maple syrup for balance.

Ingredients:

2 cups curly kale leaves

1/4 cup walnuts

One-quarter cup dried cherries

1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese

Dressing:

1/2 cup olive oil

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1/4 cup maple syrup

One teaspoon Dijon mustard

Simply combine the salad ingredients and toss until well distributed. Prepare the dressing by shaking in a mason jar.
