Kale with a Kick
Prep time: 10 min • Cook time: 5 min • Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients:
• 1 head of Kale (any variety works; red kale is a personal favorite)
• 1 avocado chopped
• 2 ½ tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 ½ tablespoons of lemon juice
• 1 teaspoons of Celtic sea salt (or healthy salt)
• ½ teaspoon of cayenne
• ½ cup chopped red onions
• 4 to 6 strips of bacon OR 4 to 6 ounces of luncheon meat (no nitrites, casein, gluten or antibiotics)
Directions:
Pan fry the bacon until it’s nice and crisp (about 2 minutes). Chop up the Kale removing the tough spine along the edges. Chop the avocado, onions and bacon. In a mixing bowl toss all ingredients together, squeezing and massaging the kale to soften the leaves and cream the avocado. If you can let it sit for about 30 minutes, the best flavor pop out. Otherwise, serve straight away.
