Kale Salad with Almonds + Dates

I have the best kale salad for you to try.

My neighbor asked me to bring it to her house for dinner with Dr. Mark Hyman on Monday. ( More on that to come!)

I gladly checked out the recipe she sent, from Epicurious. I made a few changes to the dressing and voila!

Delicious kale goodness. Packed with nutrients and lots of great flavors from the fun ingredients.
