With lots of dessert recipes coming this Fall, I thought this yummy kale salad would break things up a bit. This is my new go-to salad recipe for Fall! And possibly year-round. It has all of the Fall salad necessities:
dried cranberries, crunchy apples and pecans. The dressing is absolutely delicious - it's made from apple cider! I cannot get enough of it.

My favorite ingredient in this dish is the Ocean Spray® Craisins® Original Dried Cranberries. I love adding them to any salad (or even desserts!) to get a little sweetness in there. They make living a healthier lifestyle a little more enjoyable!

Fun fact: Did you know that ¼ cup of Craisins® Dried Cranberries provides ½ cup of fruit? I think that's pretty awesome.

It's always good to add some good greens in there to make the salad extra filling. I love using a Kale because it's so insanely powerful and filled with tons of vitamins and antioxidants!

Ingredients
  

*Salad Ingredients*

  • 4-5 cups kale
  • ¾ cup Ocean Spray® Craisins® Original Dried Cranberries
  • ½ cup pepitas
  • 1 cup feta
  • ¾ cup whole pecans shelled
  • 2 small apples green or red, sliced thin

*Apple Cider Dressing*

  • ½ cup apple cider you can also just use apple juice
  • 4 tbs apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbs honey
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbs dijon mustard
  • 3 tbs vegetable oil

Instructions
 

  • Place kale in a large bowl and massage for 3 minutes. I know this step is a little weird, but this takes out the bitterness in the leaves (and it really works!). Add rest of ingredients on top.
  • In a large measuring cup, whisk dressing ingredients together. Pour over salad and toss everything together to combine. Serve.

 If you shop at Sam's Club, you may have noticed that Ocean Spray® Craisins® Dried Cranberries are not available but can still be found at other retailers. I picked mine up at Walmart and they can be found in the breakfast isle with the other dried fruits. You can get them for the rollback price of $4.98 for the huge 24 oz package!
