    Harvest Kale Salad Recipe

    Should You Use Raw Kale or Cooked-Sautéed Kale?

    I only use slightly sautéed Kale in my house. I read it in several health journals to cook goitrogenic vegetables before eating – These vegetables include Kale, Bok Choy, Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Turnips, and Mustard Greens. It is because when eaten raw, they can suppress thyroid function. Thus, slightly sautéing them is a preferred way. It is a preference so you can choose.

    How To Sauté The Kale?

    I roughly tear and wash kale leaves. Drain excess water. I use Cast iron skillet to sauté it. ( a  bit of extra natural iron doesn’t hurt) Add a dash of Olive oil and garlic and sauté it for few minutes covered. It wilts very fast but retains it’s bright green color well.

    How To Make Roasted Sweet Potatoes?

    I often make a big batch of roasted sweet potatoes. You peel and cut sweet potatoes into cubes. Drizzle them with bit of olive oil, lemon juice,  dash of smoked paprika and pink Himalayan sea salt. Toss it well so seasoning coats the diced potatoes. Arrange them on single layer on baking tray. Put it in preheat oven 350 F for about half an hour, stirring and turning once halfway through. And that’s it. Roasted sweet potatoes are my new favorite snack . It tastes like candy . Sweet and tangy and super simple to make ! You can make a big batch and save the it for later use too.

    How To Cook Beet Roots?
    I love cooking beets in InstantPot. Clean and wash raw beets. Put 1 cup of water in main insert of InstantPot. Put the beets on steamer basket. Close the lid, vent sealed. Choose Manual 7 mins high pressure. After its done cooking, wait for 10 minutes and release leftover pressure. Your fork tender ruby red beets are ready. Remove the skin and cut them into bite size pieces. Cooked beets store and freeze well also.

    How To Make The Salad Dressing?

    I use store brought Tahini Sauce . It’s a creamy paste of toasted sesame seeds. Super creamy, velvety with superb earthy tones that complement well in this salad. It’s my go to option for making vegan creamy salad dressings or spreads. I used 1 tablespoon of tahini sauce, 1 tablespoon of water, 1 teaspoon of  chili lime seasoning. Whisk it well so everything mixes well.

    How To Assemble This Beautiful Harvest Kale Salad?

    Combine sautéed kale, roasted sweet potatoes and cooked beet pieces together. Add in some fresh cut strawberries, and pumpkin seeds. Pour the tahini dressing over. Toss and mix everything well together. Your colorful Harvest Kale Salad is ready to be devoured. Bon Appetite !!
