Description

You get the best of both worlds when you make my Kale Salad Avocado Toast recipe.  It is a mash-up between two of my favorites, that just happen to go really well together.  These kale salad toasts are packed with tons of fresh flavor and lots of important nutrients.  They’re light and refreshing, while also being hearty and filling.  Add white beans to the kale salad for extra protein and enjoy for breakfast, brunch or lunch.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium sized bunch of curly kale (3-4 cups once diced)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Juice of 1/2 a lemon, or more if desired (about 1 tablespoon)
  • 1/2 teaspoon tamari, or soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup sliced red onion
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
  • 1-2 large ripe avocados, peeled, pitted and sliced
  • 4-6 slices of bread
  • Salt and black pepper


Instructions

  1. Wash and dry kale leaves well and then use your hands, or a knife, to remove the stem.  Use a large knife to chop the kale into small, bite sized pieces.  Add chopped kale to a large mixing bowl and add in the olive oil, lemon juice, tamari, salt and black pepper.  Use your hands to massage the dressing into the kale, until it’s broken down, about 20 seconds.
  2. Next, add in the onion, dried cranberries, walnuts and parmesan cheese.  Mix the kale salad together well.  Give it a taste and add any extra lemon juice or salt, if needed.
  3. Toast the bread using a toaster, oven or a skillet on the stovetop.  Place toast onto your plate and top with a few slices of avocado.  Give the avocado a light mash, using a fork, and then sprinkle with a little bit of salt and black pepper.  Top with a big spoonful of the kale salad and garnish with some extra parmesan cheese.  These fresh toasts are best when enjoyed immediately.

Notes

This is one of those recipes where you don’t really have to measure each ingredient out exactly, especially when adding the kale salad dressing ingredients in.  Add a little at a time, give it a taste and then you can add more if you need.
