Ingredients

Scale

For the dressing:

  • 1 Tablespoon lime infused olive oil – OR 1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil + zest of 1/2 a lime and 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 1 Tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 Tablespoon white wine or rice vinegar
  • a pinch of EACH: salt, pepper and ground ginger

For each salad:

  • About 1 cup kale or other greens of choice
  • 1 cara cara orange, peeled & sliced sideways (or segmented)
  • Several thin slices of turnip, chopped into sticks
  • A sprinkle of Aleppo pepper
  • Roasted, salted pistachios, shelled & chopped

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
  2. If using kale, remove the rib, then spray or drizzle just a tiny bit of olive oil on the green leaves. Massage the kale leaves until they are bright green and have lost their bitterness. Chop and use the greens to make a bed for your salad.
  3. Arrange the orange slices or segments on the greens. Sprinkle with turnip shards, then a bit of aleppo pepper, and finally the pistachios.
  4. Drizzle with a small amount of the dressing … you don’t need much! Enjoy.

Notes

You’ll have enough dressing for 2- 4 salads, depending on how much you use per salad.
