Probably one of the healthiest dishes on the planet, this salad is definitely not going to leave you hungry or missing for anything else. It is a perfect way to include more vegetables to your meals and why not celebrate a meatless Monday.
Most of us are usually eating too much meat. Salads like this one here are a perfect proof that you don't always need to add animal protein to make your food nutritious and filling.
I paired kale with wonderful roasted sweet potato, crunchy pumpkin seeds, filling black beans and awesome ruby red seeds of a pomegranate. Since I love spice and strong flavors I also used a healthy spoonful of cayenne, but feel free to leave it out if you are not a fan of spice.
Know your ingredient
Kale is easily one of the most nutritious foods in existence. It's very nutrient-dense containing loads of Vitamins - A, K, C, and B6. It also has high amounts of manganese, and some calcium, copper, potassium, and magnesium. It's low on calories and very high in nutrients and also a good amount of antioxidants.
At the same time kale is quite filling and, as such, is a good addition to a weight loss diet.
If you are not a fan of the kale taste don't give up on it just yet. Try massaging the leaves with a little oil and baking them in a single layer until crispy - heat removes some of the specific taste and you end up with a wonderful crunchy snack - a perfect substitute to unhealthy store-bought chips.
