INGREDIENTS

1

1/3 c

toasted pecans, roughly chopped

1

honey crisp apple, sliced 1/4" thick

1/2 c

Manchego cheese, shredded

1 1/2 Tbsp

Dijon mustard (for dressing)

1/4 c

apple cider vinegar (for dressing)

3 Tbsp

white wine vinegar (for dressing)

1/4 c

olive oil (for dressing)

to taste

salt (for dressing)

INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together dijon mustard and both vinegars. While whisking, slowly pour in olive oil and continue to whisk until emulsified. Season with salt to taste.

Step 2

Remove stalks from kale and wash, tearing leaves into small bite-sized pieces. Put kale in a large bowl and pour about half of the dressing onto the kale. Massage the dressing into the kale until it starts to turn a bit darker in color and wilt. Taste a piece of kale and if it needs more dressing, pour in more (you may not need it all, it depends on how big of a bunch of kale you use). Add green onion, cheese, and pecans to salad and toss. Top with sliced apples and serve.
