“If this kick ass kale salad doesn’t get you to love your greens, I don’t know what will. Russell James is a raw chef in England with amazing eye candy recipes. He did a chef’s residency at The Plant in Dumbo, NY where he made this dish daily for the staff and they simply couldn’t get enough of the creamy smoke flavor.” – Indulge

Wilted Kale Salad with a Creamy Chipotle Dressing (raw)

Serves 4-6

For the Wilted Kale:

4 Heads Kale (this will seem like a lot but will wilt down when the salt is added)

2 T Sea Salt

2 Cups Baby Tomatoes, sliced

1 Cup Hulled Hemp Seeds

Step 1 Remove the stems and then wash and cut the kale into small pieces. Place into a bowl, add salt and start to massage the kale until it wilts and takes on a cooked texture.

Step 2 Add the tomatoes and hemp seeds to the bowl and mix in by hand.

For the Dressing:

3 Avocados

2 chipotle peppers*

1/2 Cup Olive Oil

2T agave

1/4 Cup Lemon Juice

Note *If not using chipotle peppers, substitute with onion powder, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder and tamari/nama shoyu

Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender until creamy and mix into kale by hand.
