hey guys it's Conny here and welcome
back to my channel in today's video I
have a recipe for you
the recipe is actually from a website
called oh she glows but I adapted the
recipe and I've made a few small changes
just to make it a little bit easier to
make and not so time-consuming so if you
like healthy delicious solids then keep
on watching so you want to start out
with two bunches of lacinato or dinosaur
kale you can also use the regular curly
kale for this recipe but I just prefer
dinosaur kale and you want to take each
kale leaf and run it under cold water
just to make sure that you get all the
dirt off I noticed that organic produce
especially has a lot more dirt so yeah
just making sure that we wash all the
dirt off
after we've done that we want to take
our knife and just cut right along the
stem and we're going to just eat the
leafy part and discard the stem because
it's pretty tough and bitter so I don't
want to eat that a lot of people like to
save the stems to put in their green
juice or their smoothie so you can do
that as well
so after you cut all your kale leaves
you want to bunch them together and
little by little and then just cut them
into bite-size pieces
so after you've cut all your kale leaves
just stick them in a big bowl like this
now remember we washed our kale leaves
so they are quite wet so what I like to
do is just put them in a salad spinner
just to get some of that excess water
out and I'm just piling it up way to the
top and then I'm just going to spin spin
spin
[Music]
you'd be surprised how much water
actually comes out there you go
that's a lot of water and then after you
have semi-dried your kale leaves using
the salad spinner then we're going to
move on to the rest of the ingredients
here I have 1 clove of garlic which I'm
bashing with a rock like a cavewoman
yeah you could use 1 to 2 garlic cloves
I find that 2 is a little bit much for
me it's a little too strong
so I'm just using one garlic clove and
that I think that's pretty good
then I'm just gonna mince it really fine
you don't want to bite down on a huge
piece of garlic as you're eating your
salad so make sure you really mince that
up super fine and after you do that you
just want to just stick that in the bowl
with the kale leaves
[Music]
then we're going to take half of a lemon
and squeeze the juice right into the
bowl
next we're gonna take some extra-virgin
olive oil and I like to eyeball it I
like to slather my kale salad with extra
virgin olive oil it's about three to
four tablespoons you can use it however
much you want then we're gonna take some
Himalayan sea salt which is a very good
salt to consume I here and take a pinch
of that and put that in the bowl and
we're also gonna take some ground black
pepper and just do a pinch of that as
well this is actually nutritional yeast
a friend of mine got it for me at the
bulk food section at the health food
store and this also goes into the salad
it gives like a kind of like a cheesy
flavor like this would be the equivalent
of like a real Parmesan cheese so I'm
just taking one heaping tablespoon of
that putting it in there then I like to
take a plastic glove like this these are
disposable gloves that you can get at
like the Korean market because a lot of
Korean cooking requires you know a lot
of hand mixing so what I'm doing here is
just mixing all the ingredients together
and at the same time really squeezing
and massaging the kale leaves so that
they become softer and more easier and
like easier to eat
next I'm taking some dried cranberries
these are just from Trader Joe's and I'm
just gonna dump maybe like 2 tablespoons
worth of dried cranberries you could
just eyeball it however much you want
then I'm taking some dry toasted pecan
pieces also from Trader Joe's and maybe
like 1/4 of a cup of that in there if
the pieces are too big you can always
just take them out onto a cutting board
and then just chop the rough chop them
with a knife then I'm taking a fork and
just tossing it together all the
ingredients and there you have the best
kale salad well in my opinion I remember
when I first ate this salad I had to
find out what the recipe was because I
was just so blown away at how delicious
it is the pecan pieces add a nice
crunchy touch to salad that cranberries
add a nice sweet and tartness the lemon
just it gives like a fresh zing to the
salad and yeah it's just really really
really good so that is the salad the
best kale salad that I've ever eaten I
know you guys will not be disappointed
and you have to give this a try let me
know in the comments what your favorite
salad is and I will catch you in the
next one bye
