Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

• 1 bunch lacinato kale (also called black, Italian or Tuscan kale)
• 3 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, divided
• 2 Tablespoon lemon juice, divided
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoon honey
• 1/4 teaspoon minced fresh ginger (optional)
• 1/2 cup pomegranate arils
• 1 orange, sectioned
• Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Cut away the tough stalks from the kale and discard. Slice the leaves into bite-sized pieces and place in a large bowl.
2. Add 1 tablespoon oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and the salt to the kale. Massage the ingredients together for 4-5 minutes, working the leaves between your fingers. The kale will wilt and soften slightly.
3. Using a blender or a whisk, combine remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, honey and ginger, if using. Pour dressing over the kale, and add pomegranate arils and orange sections. Toss to evenly distribute the dressing.
4. Season to taste with pepper.
