Apple Kale Salad

Apple Kale Salad

Ingredients
3 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil (cold pressed)
3 tsp. apple cider vinegar
2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
1/8 tsp. salt
6 to 7 cups bright green organic kale (I used Dino Kale, it's more tender)
1 fresh apple (use a crisp apple) peeled and sliced thinly and cut into 1 inch pieces.
1/2 cup walnuts, lightly toasted
1/4 to 1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese (if you love blue cheese use the larger amount)

Wash kale leaves and put into a colander.  Have a large wooden bowl ready to mix the salad in.  Gently pull away the tender green kale from the center rib.  Throw away the ribs or use in compost bin.

Mix oil, vinegar, lemon juice and salt in a bowl with a whisk.  Pour and massage the oil mixture into the leaves very well.

Toss the apple, walnuts and blue cheese into the kale salad.  Enjoy.
