Ingredients

10 cups 10 cups kale chopped
4 teaspoons olive oil
1 ½ tablespoons packed fresh mint finely chopped
¼ cup sliced almonds
2 grapefruits segmented
⅓ cup crumbled feta
1 medium avocado
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice (about1 large lime, or 2 small limes)
1 tablespoon honey
⅛ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Wash the kale, remove the hard spines down the center, and shred the kale with a sharp knife.
Massage 1 teaspoon olive oil into kale. Spread kale onto a baking sheet and broil for 2-3 minutes until it has softened and crisped up a little bit. Let it cool for a few minutes before using in the salad.
Cut off the outer skin of the grapefruit, slice in between the membranes and remove the grapefruit segments so they are skin-free. See our full tutorial on how to segment a grapefruit with pictures if you need further guidance.
Make the salad dressing by whisking 3 teaspoons(1 tablespoon) olive oil with lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper. If your honey is super thick, warm it up in the microwave for a few seconds before mixing with the other salad dressing ingredients.
Slice avocado in half and remove the pit. Thinly slice the avocado and use a large spoon to scoop it out of the skin.
Toss the kale with dressing and fresh mint. Top with almonds, feta, sliced avocado, and grapefruit segments. Serve immediately.
