The Best Kale Salad Recipe

Best Kale Salad Recipe vegan

By Dr. Liz Orchard

Do you ever crave something super healthy, yet 100% delicious, and wonder what to make?

Enter this amazing kale salad recipe from my dear friend Angharad Picton, transformational coach, astrologer and Qoya instructor. She brought it over for a dinner gathering I had many moons ago and I often find myself reminiscing about how fantastic that kale salad tasted - savory, sweet, and oh-so fresh! It's definitely the best kale salad I have ever tasted, and perhaps even my favorite salad recipe of all time. It's that good. 

I asked her to write it down so I could eat it to my heart's content - and now, so can you!
