The fruit and goat cheese add lots of great flavor. Can add some red onion for more kick. My wife and I love it! A tasty and guiltless dinner item. Ingredients:
1 lb chicken, cooked and sliced |
12 ounces kale or 1 bunch kale |
12 ounces spinach |
2 ounces goat cheese or 2 ounces other flavorful crumbled cheese |
1 lemon, juice of |
2 cups strawberries, sliced |
1 cup mandarin orange section |
1 cup sliced almonds |
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 tablespoon honey |
1 teaspoon kosher salt or 1 teaspoon sea salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Prepare the chicken, or get it precooked (like I did - it's easy). Slice the fruit.
2. Combine strawberries, oranges, honey, balsamic vinegar, and half of the olive oil. Set aside and let rest.
3. Remove and discard stalks from kale and spinach. Tear into manageable pieces, but keep kale and spinach separate.
4. Cover kale with lemon juice, olive oil, and salt. Then, crush (or 'massage') the kale until it start to soften.
5. Mix everything together, and top with almonds, goat cheese, and black pepper.
