Kale is a true superfood. Combining it with other nutritional powerhouses, macadamias and avocado, means this salad is supercharged!
Serves 2
Prep time 20 minutes
Great for lunch
Ingredients
- 100g kale, stalks removed, leaves shredded
- 1 tomato, finely sliced
- 30g macadamias, roughly chopped
- 1 zucchini, cut into ribbons
- 80g avocado
- 100g low-fat Greek-style yoghurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Pinch of dried chilli flakes
Method
1. Place the kale, tomato, macadamias and zucchini in a large bowl and toss to combine. Arrange on serving plates. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
2. Place the avocado, yoghurt, lemon juice and chilli flakes in a small food processor (or use a hand-held blender) and blitz until smooth.
3. Drizzle the avocado dressing over the salad and serve.
Tip: Use a vegetable peeler to cut the zucchini into ribbons. If you are unable to find kale, baby spinach or rocket leaves also work well in this salad
