I heard many praises about kale, and sampled some salads on potlucks. However, we used kale and related vegetables only in smoothies - until today. I decided to prepare a salad for lunch and it was so good! I followed The Raw Gourmet (one of our favorite cookbooks, by Nomi Shannon), page 67 "Kale and Hearty". Surprisingly, I found all the ingredients the recipe calls for, including red peppers, grated sweet potato (commonly called yams, which is probably a different plant), and dehydrated mushrooms. Only change I made was to reduce amount of lemon juice to half - original is too sour for our taste. Two of us left the bowl almost empty...
Next time, I must try a simpler variation, e.g. this Kale Salad (using lemon juice instead of vinegar).
