    Kale and cranberry salad

    Are you ready for a delicious festive salad?

    This kale and cranberry salad makes for the perfect side dish whether it be for a weeknight dinner or special holiday meal. It’s sweet and tangy and packed with texture. You get the crunch of kale, apple and toasted pepitas, plus chewy cranberries all tossed in a refreshing citrus dressing, that’s probiotic thanks to homemade yogurt.

    It’s an easy one to pull together and can be made ahead of time because kale holds up even with dressing on it. If you have any leftovers, you can store the salad in a glass storage container for several days without it going soggy or loosing crunch.
