Weekend Glow Kale Salad by Angela Liddon

By

Ready to get your glow on? I was a bit shocked because this was the best salad I think I’ve ever made, kale or otherwise. Even more shockingly, Eric inhaled this salad! When you can get a man to enjoy a kale salad, you know that you have hit the jackpot. We've made this a handful of times already and I know I will return to this recipe again and again.
