Servings 4
Ingredients
- 2 bunches kale washed and chopped into bit size pieces
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes halved
- 1 cup bell peppers (mixture of rainbow colors) chopped
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Add washed and chopped kale to a large bowl. Pour olive oil on top and massage kale for 2 minutes, making sure to massage the olive oil into all the kale leaves.
- Add tomatoes, bell peppers (I like to use a mixture of colors to give it the rainbow appearance), Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes into the bowl. Mix to fully combine.
- Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container, good for a few days.

Notes
Extra: Love nuts? Sometimes I like to add 1/2 cup almonds into the salad if I want to bulk it up and add even more crunch!
