This past week I have been craving dark greens and I have been making this wonderful kale salad that includes a lot of croutons, which I love, especially when I make extra that I can snack on for the rest of the day. In case you feel like dark greens as well here is the recipe: (enough for 2 people)
My Grandma’s Croutons
  • 2 slices of Country Sourdough cut into penny sized cubes
  • 1 1/2 Tbs safflower oil
  • 1/2 Tbs butter
  • salt to taste
Heat the oil in a small cast iron pan, once hot add the bread cubes and stir around in the pan, sprinkle with salt. 
Cook for about 7 min until browned stirring frequently, just before they are perfectly colored add the butter and as it melts coat all the bread pieces with it. Transfer to a bowl. 
Dressing
  • 3 Tbs olive oil
  • 1 1/2 Tbs white balsamic vinegar 
  • 2 tsp of your favorite smooth mustard 
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Put all the ingredients in a little jar, shake well
Salad
  • 1 bunch Lacinato Kale, washed, stemmed and cut into small ribbons
  • 1/2 apple, cut into small pieces
Place ingredients in a medium size bowl, pour dressing over top and toss. At this point I like to let it sit for a bit, even overnight. When you are ready to eat it, add croutons and lunch is ready!
