Kale Citrus Salad

YIELDS: 6 servings PREP TIME: 0 hours 20 mins

Ingredients

1 bunch Kale, Leaves Torn Off the Stalks 1 whole Jalapeno, Seeded and Sliced Very Thin 3 whole Tangerines or Clementines (or 1 Orange), Peeled and Cut into Chunks 4 oz. Goat Cheese/chevre/or cheese of choice 1/4 c. Orange Juice 2 tbsp. Olive Oil 1 clove Garlic, Pressed or Grated 1 tsp. Sugar Salt to Taste

Black Pepper to Taste 1 tbsp. (heaping) Sour Cream or Plain Greek Yogurt

Directions

Grab bunches of the kale leaves and use a sharp knife to thinly slice them. Keep going until you have a big pile of finely shredded kale.

To make the dressing, combine the orange juice, olive oil, garlic, sugar, salt and pepper in a small mason jar. Shake vigorously until all combined, then add the sour cream or yogurt and shake again until it's nice and creamy.

Toss the kale in half the dressing for a minute or so, then add the jalapeno slices and citrus pieces. Toss again until combined. Add a little more dressing if it needs it (extra dressing can be stored in the fridge and used for any salad.)

At the last minute, break the goat cheese into chunks with a fork and toss it into the salad. Serve!

(Note: because they kale holds up well, the salad can be tossed 15 minutes before serving.)

TO ALL OF OUR STUDENTS: If you see any of the following: *another student struggling to make friends; *another student being picked on; *a student who is new, shy, or not with the “in crowd”; or *a student who is eating lunch alone. BE A LEADER! BE A WILDCAT!! Say hi. Smile at them. Ask if you can sit with them. Include them. You never know what that person is facing inside or outside of school. YOUR KINDNESS CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN SOMEONE’S LIFE!
