Ingredients

  • 4 cups kale (de-stemmed and chopped - I packed mine into the measuring cup pretty well)
  • 1 cup diced avocado
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp plus ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • Place the kale in a medium bowl and sprinkle it with salt.
  • Using clean hands, pick up the kale and scrunch it with your fists several times.
  • Let the kale sit for about five minutes while you slice the avocado and get the other ingredients ready.
  • When the five minutes is up, add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl and continue scrunching with your hands until the avocado is evenly blended.
