Massaged Kale

Ingredients

  • 1-2 bunches kale any variety
  • 2-3 tbsp olive oil, cold-pressed
  • 1 generous pinch flaky sea salt
  • juice of ½ lemon

Directions

  • Remove the ribs from the kale, add to bowl or salad spinner and wash with cool water, drain and spin dry.
  • Cut kale into long ribbons, rolling many leaves together and cutting into ½" thick strips. Add to a large bowl.
  • Add freshly-squeezed lemon juice, olive oil, and salt to the kale. Massage the greens with your hands until tender and they start to release some of their juice. Should be about 3-5 minutes, taste and adjust seasoning / flavor as necessary.
