keeping in line with my detox mode, i attempted to go to nyc for father’s day last weekend and keep my healthy habits alive. needless to say, it wasn’t easy, but i did my best  thanks to a little bit of planning and the huge whole foods that is downstairs from my dad’s apartment. of course, i treated myself to an amazing italian dinner at l’artusi on sunday night…i mean, you’ve got to live a little!

i thought i’d share this amazing chopped kale salad recipe given to me by one of my best friends. it’s fresh and simple and a perfect cooling dish to serve as an appetizer with fish or on its own for lunch.

ingredients:

one bunch of kale, finely chopped

8 tbsp cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil

2 tbsp orange juice

2 tbsp lemon juice

2 chopped shallot cloves

5-6 oz chopped feta cheese

1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted

1/2 cup dried cranberries

celtic sea salt & ground pepper to taste

wash and chop kale. place in a large serving bowl. in a separate bowl, mix olive oil, orange juice, lemon juice, chopped shallots. pour mixture over kale and toss. finally, add feta, cranberries, pinenuts, salt and pepper.

enjoy!
