| Kale Pecorino Salad
Italian
|
|
|
|
| This simple-to-make salad delivers a lot of flavor. Salty, nutty Pecorino Romano is the perfect cheese to pair with kale. The salad needs no further adornment than a lemony vinaigrette. However, since I like variety, I have on occasion substituted feta cheese, then added pine nuts or sliced almonds. ~Joanna |

Steps
|
|
|
|
|
| 1 | In a salad bowl, toss kale leaves with one tablespoon of lemon juice. Let rest for 30 minutes. This will tenderize the kale a bit and add a lot of flavor. |
| | 2 | Make vinaigrette: Whisk together remaining lemon juice, sugar, and olive oil. |
| | 3 | Add cheese, a few grindings of pepper, and toss. |
