Kale, wild rice, apple, walnut salad

Nice change up salad found at https://eatwithclarity.com/apple-and-kale-salad-with-maple-tahini-dressing/.   

Note: I prefer leaving out the wild rice

INGREDIENTS

Salad:

• 1 bunch curly kale 
• 1 1/2 cups cooked wild rice (about 1/2 cup uncooked) (can omit)
• 1 large apple 
• 1/4 cup walnuts
• 1/4 cup pomegranate airls 

Dressing:

• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
• 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
• 1 1/2 tbsp dijon mustard
• 1/4 tsp salt
• Black pepper to taste

Go to the link for directions. She had a good idea for preparing the kale by washing and massaging it under warm water. I tore it up.Then I cut it with my kitchen scissors to get bite sized pieces. A bit of lemon would be good in this too.I used straight dark wild rice, she used a mixed kind. I didn't need as much as the recipe called for, but it would depend on how much kale you use.

Another optional way is using the ingredients below:

Ingredients

• 4 cups Kale, shredded
• 1/2 cup Apple, chopped
• 1/3 cup Walnuts, chopped
• 1/4 cup Lemon Juice
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tsp. honey or maple syrup
