Apple kale with cheddar

4 cups very finely chopped or slivered curly kale or Russian kale (about 6 ounces on the stem, or half of a ¾-pound bunch, stemmed and washed in two rinses of water)

2 tablespoons coarsely chopped toasted almonds

1 apple, sweet, like a Fuji, or a sweet-tart, like a Gala, Braeburn or Pink Lady, cored and cut in ¼-inch dice

1 ounce sharp Cheddar cheese, cut in ¼-inch dice

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Salt to taste

1 very small garlic clove, puréed

5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan

Combine the kale, almonds, apple and Cheddar in a large bowl.
Whisk together the lemon juice, salt, garlic and olive oil. Add to the salad, and toss well. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the top, and serve.

TIP

Advance preparation: This salad benefits from tossing with the dressing about 15 minutes before you serve it. The kale will soften in the dressing.
