You pull all the leaves off of a big bunch of kale. Take extra care to leave the stem behind and only pull off the leaves. Also make sure you wash it really well. Since it will be eaten raw you don't want any grit.
You make a simple dressing.
Then you literally massage it until it wilts.
Need the specifics?
Massaged Kale
About 10 cups of kale. I just used a big bunch- stems removed, torn into bite sized pieces, washed, and dried
1T olive oil
1t fresh lemon juice
1/4t salt
1 garlic clove grated or minced
Put the kale into a large bowl. Mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and garlic. You could also add a teaspoon of honey if you wanted. Massage the dressing into the kale for a few minutes or until the kale changes color and becomes soft.
This is great to make ahead of time to let the flavors settle. It lasts all week in the fridge for me and never changes texture. Remember this is very basic so you might want to jazz it up a bit. My favorite way is with toasted almonds and apple juice sweetened dried cranberries.
What is your favorite green to use for salads?

I love massaged kale; it's the only way I'll eat it! I can only find it at our farmer's market, though-- it's not easily available in stores here in Adelaide- so I only get to have it once a week or so!
I've been meaning to ask you what this was when were talking about it last week...sounds delicious!
mmmm i love kale
How do you make yours and what toppings do you use? I'd love to try a different flavor combination!
I've been using kale in my smoothies and I love it.
I love massaged kale salads. Breaking down the kale a bit this way makes it that much better to eat raw. Otherwise, I do eat a lot of spinach salads, just because it's easy and nutritious for salads to have packed for the work-week. Have a great day!
We absolutely love kale salads- my husband likes it much better raw than cooked. So simple, but so yummy!
Awesome! I'm totally trying this. Yummmmmmm 😊
where do you find apple juice sweetened cranberries?
Whole foods! No sugar added. Just cranberries and apple juice :)
Me too! It doesn't taste any different than spinach to me. I like to switch it up a bit.
I have been wanting to incorporate kale into my diet for awhile now, but have not been certain about how to go about doing it. This sounds like the perfect solution!

How many servings is that? They actually sell no kale where I live cause I live in NOWHERE land :)
I've seen recipes for the infamous "massage avocado kale salad".
My guess would be 5 servings. I eat it for five days... :)

Oh holy yumminess! I just made this and I think ate half of it right from the bowl as I was massaging my kale. Thank you for introducing me to all kinds of wonderful healthy foods and recipes!
You are SO welcome! Kale is my favorite veggie. :)
