Salad
- Place chopped kale in a large bowl. Drizzle with a touch of olive oil and massage the leaves with your hands for about two minutes until soft and vibrant.

- Transfer to a serving bowl, sprinkle a few extra blueberries or nuts on top, and enjoy right away.
Notes
Best enjoyed fresh. To make nut-free, use pumpkin or sunflower seeds in place of nuts. Dressing can be prepared ahead, but toss salad just before serving for best texture.
