A Note from Feedfeed
Green, greens, green! This kale salad is super yummy with a healthy yogurt-based green goddess dressing. Poping with bright flavors such as Sungold tomatoes, tangy dressing, and a bite from the red onion; this salad is the bomb!

ingredients
The Salad
- 10 ounces baby kale
- 10 ounces yellow cherry tomatoes, quartered
- 1 English cucumber, chopped
- 1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup red wine vinegar, for pickled onion
- 1/2 cup cold water, for pickled onion
ingredients
The Green Goddess Dressing
- 1 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 large garlic clove, peeled
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1/4 cup fresh Italian parsley, packed, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh chives, packed, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, packed, chopped
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- Salt & pepper, to taste
Method
Step 1
In a bowl, add thinly sliced onion, water and red wine vinegar. Let onions pickle for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Use a sharp knife to roughly chop baby kale on a large cutting board. Add chopped kale, cucumber, tomatoes and drained pickled onion (and crispy diced turkey bacon if desired) to a large salad bowl.
Step 3
In a blender, add yogurt, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, parsley, chives, tarragon, white wine vinegar, and salt & pepper to taste. Blend until creamy and uniform, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed.
Step 4
Add about three-quarters of the dressing to the salad and toss. Add more dressing if desired. Serve as-is or topped with one of the proteins in my notes below!
