1/4 teaspoon each salt and freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)
Salad:
4 cups (well-packed) chopped kale (ribs removed)
2 cups finely sliced or grated red cabbage
2 cups grated carrots
1 cup dried cranberries
3/4 cup pumpkin seeds
1/2 cup chopped green onions (with white parts)
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
Directions
Whisk together all dressing ingredients in a small bowl or measuring cup and set aside until ready to use.
Place chopped kale in a large bowl. Add 1/4 cup dressing and massage kale for five minutes using your hands. I know this is weird and cumbersome but just do it, please :) You’ll thank me later.
Add all remaining salad ingredients and at least six tablespoons dressing (or more, if desired; you might not use all of it). Mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.
