Directions:
Salad - Slice kale leaves into ribbons and place them into a large bowl. Massage the olive oil into the kale (they become less crispy, more limp). Sprinkle with kosher salt.

Peel and divide each clementine into sections, cut each section in half crosswise and add to kale. Option - cut each apple into thick slices. Drizzle 3 tablespoons of Citrus Dressing over the kale and toss to combine well. Add more dressing as desired.

Citrus Salad Dressing - whisk all ingredients except olive oil, then slowly whisk in oil until it has emulsified. Serve with kale salad.

from Cathy
Many of you don't think you like kale, but even Bob liked this recipe. Part of the secret is removing all stems (they are bitter), and then massaging the oil into it, which makes it less fibrous.
